Answer to Question 1

LDPE because it is not crystalline like HDPE, which allows for the free radicals to recombine more easily and can move to allow polymers to join together.

Answer to Question 2

The plastic resin is the matrix in these composites and its purpose is to bond the fibers together, give shape to the part, and protect the fibers from adverse environmental conditions.
