Poly(ethene) is formed when several monomers of ethene (an alkene) are joined together. Ethene can take part in this type of reaction as it is has a double bond (it's unsaturated) which opens up to allow multiple monomers to form a chain

Polyethylene or polythene (abbreviated PE; IUPAC name polyethene or poly(ethylene)) is the most commonplastic. The annual global production is around 80 million tonnes. Its primary use is in packaging (plastic bags, plasticfilms, geomembranes, containers including bottles, etc.).
