The construction of an energy saving society provides a huge market opportunity for the use of new pattern building materials.The application of low density polyethylene(LDPE)in LDPE/lignin composite building materials,transparent energy storage concrete and insulation materials is reviewed.The research progress of LDPE in thermal insulation materials and flame retardant thermal insulation materials is emphasized.Suggestions are offered that the application research of LDPE should focus on new type building materials and cost reduction for widely use.
