Answer #1

#1: HDPE polymer is a good material for boats because:

It floats on both fresh and marine water without deforming. It is resistant to salt and water. Hence there is no need to wash the boat after use and hence reduce maintenance time.

HDPE polymer when mixed with carbon becomes UV-light resistant. Hence damage caused due to continuous sun exposure is prevented.

The smooth surface of HDPE polymer prevents marine growths like algae.

HDPE can be easily recycled. Hence it is environmental friendly.

#2: HDPE polymer due to high density can best contain extremely corrosive materials.

#3: High density polyethylene(HDPE) has many uses as given below:

It is used as container for corrosive materials like cleaning materials, paints stripper etc.

It is used in corrosion resistant piping.

It is used to make boats. etc.
