PE tipe tipe, canke polyethylene (PE), ni umuyoboro w’ipulasitike ukozwe ahanini uva ku nzira y’ivyuma vy’ivyuma vy’ivyuma vy’ivyuma vy’ivyuma vy’ivyuma vy’ivyuma vy’ivyuma vy’ivyuma vy’ivyuma vy’ivyuma vy’ivyuma vy’ivyuma vy’ivyuma vy’ivyuma vy’ivyuma. Kubera imiterere myiza cane y’umubiri n’imiti be n’uko bishobora gukoreshwa cane, umuyoboro wa PE urakoreshwa cane mu gutanga amazi, mu gutanga gazi, mu gufuha kw’uburimyi, no mu gutwara amazi y’inganda.
Ibintu nyamukuru vy’umuyoboro wa PE birimwo ubushobozi bukomeye bwo gusenyuka, uguhindura neza cane, uguhindura neza, gushiramwo vyoroshe, n’ubuzima buramba. Ugereranije n’imiyoboro y’ivyuma ya kera, umuyoboro wa PE ntiwutera canke ngo ukoreshe kandi ushobora gutera neza imiti nk’aside, alkalis, n’umunyu, ivyo bikaba bituma bibereye cane cane gutwara amazi y’ibitoke. Ikindi kandi, uguhindura neza cane bituma ishobora kumenyera aho umuntu ashobora gutunga canke guhindura ibintu mu buryo bw’ubutaka, bikagabanya ingorane zo kuvuza induru ziterwa n’ugucika intege. Upima nk’imwe gusa - umuzingi w’umuyoboro w’icuma, umuyoboro wa PE uragabanya cane ibiciro vyo gutwara no gushiramwo. Ishobora kandi guhurizwa hamwe hakoreshejwe -iburi canke umuyagankuba- ihuriro, kugira ngo ikidodo cizigirwa n'igihe kirekire - Ijambo ry'umuriro ryizigirwa.
Ku bijanye n’ikoreshwa, amatiyo ya PE ashirwa mu rwego rwo hasi - polyetylene (LDPE), uburiri buringaniye - uburemere bw’uburemere (MDPE), n’uburemere bw’uburemere ({2}} uburemere bw’uburemere (HDPE) bushingiye ku rwego rw’ibikorwa vyazo. Umuyoboro wa HDPE, kubera inkomezi zawo nyinshi n’uburemere bwawo {{4} =}barwo, ikoreshwa cane mu gutanga amazi yo mu gisagara, mu gutanga gazi, no mu buryo bwo gukoresha amatiyo y’inganda. Ku rundi ruhande, umuyoboro wa LDPE, ukoreshwa cane mu bidukikije vyo hasi -kumenya nk’ugufumbira kw’uburimyi n’ugufumbira uburimyi kubera uguhinduranya no guhangana n’ingaruka. PE tipe kandi itanga ibikorwa vyiza cane vy’ibidukikije kandi irashobora gusubirwamwo, ihuriza ku bisabwa n’inyubakwa z’ivyatsi bitotahaye n’iterambere riramvye.
Kubera iterambere ry’ubuhinga, ibikorwa vy’imiyoboro ya PE birabandanya gutera imbere. Ivyiza nk’ukurwanya UV, ubushobozi bwo guhangana n’ubushuhe bwinshi, n’ukudashobora gusenyuka vyihuta bituma bibereye ku bidukikije bikomeye cane. Mu gihe kizoza, n’ukwihuta kw’iterambere ry’igisagara n’iterambere ry’ubwubatsi bw’ibikorwa remezo, ugusaba kw’isoko ry’imiyoboro ya PE bizobandanya gukura, ivyo bikaba bituma ari ikintu gihambaye mu migambi y’imiyoboro y’ubuhinga bwa none.
