    Author(s): Djakhdane Khaled*, Mecheri Aouinet and Abdelkader Dehbi

    The purpose of this study is deteriorating effect of natural ageing on tri-layer and mono- layer polyethylene films, used as glasshouse cover in the North Africa environment. The films were handed out by Agrofilm and composed of low denseness polyethylene (LDPE), holding admixture (e.g., color, infrared and ultraviolet stabilisers). Those films were used to strengthen and set up a real glasshouse situated in the northern of Algeria. The influence of growing old was, controlled by watching the modifications in mechanical (robustness and flexibility) features. The study has been conducted during a period of nine months of natural ageing. The films have been spontaneously matured and grow older. The results display that the environmental components have deteriorating effects on the sustainability and all properties mechanical of the polyethylene film. The study illustrate clearly that th..
