2. Detonating cord - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Detonating_cord

   Detonating cord. Detonating cord (also called detonation cord, detacord, detcord, or primer cord) is a thin, flexible plastic tube usually filled with pentaerythritol tetranitrate (PETN, pentrite). With the PETN exploding at a rate of approximately 6,400 m/s (21,000 ft/s), any common length of detonation cord appears to explode instantaneously.

   Plastic Pipe lengths manufactured in Australia by extruding HDPE material.. Plastic pipe is a tubular section, or hollow cylinder, made of plastic.It is usually, but not necessarily, of circular cross-section, used mainly to convey substances which can flow—liquids and gases (fluids), slurries, powders and masses of small solids.

4. High-density polyethylene - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-density_polyethylene

   High-density polyethylene ( HDPE) or polyethylene high-density ( PEHD) is a thermoplastic polymer produced from the monomer ethylene. It is sometimes called "alkathene" or "polythene" when used for HDPE pipes. [1] With a high strength-to-density ratio, HDPE is used in the production of plastic bottles, corrosion-resistant piping, geomembranes ...

6. Ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultra-high-molecular...

   Ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene ( UHMWPE, UHMW) is a subset of the thermoplastic polyethylene. Also known as high-modulus polyethylene ( HMPE ), it has extremely long chains, with a molecular mass usually between 3.5 and 7.5 million amu. [1] The longer chain serves to transfer load more effectively to the polymer backbone by ...
