Zusammenfassung:Methods for preparation of high strength yarns having superior yarn-to-ya rn uniformity of denier, tenacity and tensile modulus and uniform unidirecti onal fibrous sheets. Ballistic composites prepared from these yarns and fibr ous sheets have improved uniformity of ballistic resistance. The drawn yarns , fibrous sheets and articles made therefrom are more uniform than the prior art and are useful in applications requiring impact absorption and ballisti c resistance, such as body armor, helmets, breast plates, helicopter seats, spall shields; composite sports equipment such as kayaks, canoes, bicycles a nd boats; and in fishing line, sails, ropes, sutures and fabrics.
