HDPE tensile strength
(OP)
Evening or morning I don't really know, anyway we're supposed to make a small prototype of a tunnel from polymers that can hold up to 15kg , as we've selected HDPE as a material but we need something else with it so what could be added in order to increase the strength of it in the form of horseshoe tunnel ' other than mica and glass fiber ' since we have a certain budget that we can't cross

Polypropylene type also available.
Politicians like to panic, they need activity. It is their substitute for achievement.

Do you know whether you're in a load regime where HDPE stress cracking is actually an issue?
Are you happy that you don't need to worry about stiffness (that your plastic will break before it buckles)?
Is mixing everything together to make a moulding material an absolute given, or are you allowed to laminate your structure?
If you need tensile strength, you won't find anything with more of it than gel-spun HMPE fibre. I've seen it laminated into an LDPE matrix, though that takes some pretty delicate temperature control.
