High-density polyethylene (HDPE) fibre is used as liners for surgical gloves.Although the liner has a very high resistance to being cut, the polymer allows a surgeon to maintain a delicate sense of touch. The HDPE liner is usually rigid andnot flexible.a. Suggest a reason why low-density polyethylene, LDPE cannot be used.b. Give a molecular level reason why HDPE is successful in this application.
