Notes:
Degradation resulting from weathering in low-density polyethylene (LDPE) films used in agricultural applications was investigated by a series of mechanical and spectroscopic characterization techniques. An easy, nondestructive, and comparatively sensitive test for measuring the durability of these films based on microhardness indentations is presented.
