Introduction Linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) stands as a cornerstone in the world of polyethylene, recognized for its versatility and widespread applications. As we explore the landscape of LLDPE, it becomes evident that Iran, with its vast gas reserves and prominent position in the global petrochemical market, is a significant contributor to the growth of the...
Properties of Iran Low density polyethylene (LDPE) Under the polyethylene class of materials, Low density polyethylene (LDPE) has shaped the packaging and manufacturing industry’s landscape, Being the oldest and most mature of the polyethylene’s. LDPE was first produced in 1933 by Imperial Chemical Industries (ICI) using a high-pressure process via free radical polymerization. Its manufacturers employ...
Properties of Iran HIPS Polystyrene (PS) is a well-known polymer, famous for being one of the most commonly used thermoplastics worldwide. It is divided into three groups, each group and its grades with their unique properties are suitable for a specific application. These groups are: general purpose polystyrene (GPPS), high impact polystyrene (HIPS), and expanded polystyrene (EPS). Polystyrene...
A guide to Iran HDPE High density polyethylene (HDPE) is the most used of the three polyethylene’s for a wide range of applications. Iran is one of the lead producers and has established its place in the market. Here we will introduce Iran HDPE and discuss the market and price of it. HDPE is a thermoplastic polyethylene....
Properties of Iran GPPS One of the most common thermoplastics around the globe is polystyrene (PS). It is produced in many grades, each suitable for specific applications. Polystyrene generally can be divided into three groups: general purpose polystyrene (GPPS), high impact polystyrene (HIPS), and expanded polystyrene (EPS). Each one of them has unique properties, making them suitable for specific applications. Iran...
Calcium carbonate is a useful material product that is distributed throughout the world. So, you can find it in nature as Limestone and the primary source of calcite in Limestone in most marine organisms. The history of using this mineral material goes back to 400,000 BC. Having different forms and chemical composition makes it attractive to various applications....
Introduction Two major belts worldwide collectively hold about 15 percent of the Earth's total mineral resources, with the Alpine-Himalayan orogenic belt standing out prominently. Notably, 12 percent of this significant orogenic belt lies within the borders of Iran. This unique geological positioning has resulted in the identification of approximately 8 to 9 areas within the...
Calcium carbonate sources in Iran are numerous, and the majority of them are used in cement manufacturing. Isfahan, Lorestan, Kerman, and Fars in Iran are among the provinces in which limestone exporters can extract high-quality limestone. Iran, having the best quality and abundant mines of this mineral, has launched exporting limestone with a great deal of success....
Iran Quicklime is one of the most historical human-made compounds. Nobody knows when humans first discovered and used Quicklime. Maybe, when ancient people used Limestone rocks as their fireplace. Then, fire heated the Limestone rocks, and the first Quicklime was created. Quicklime has other common names, same as Burnt Lime, Lime, or Calcium Oxide. Quicklime is produced by crushed Limestone (calcium carbonate (CaCO3)),...
Mines and mining industries provide many job opportunities and economic growth. Extraction is an important way to achieve sustainable development, and investing in this sector creates appropriate economic added value. Huge resources of various minerals have made Iran one of the richest mineral countries. One of the most prominent features of Iran is owning enormous...
