Zusammenfassung: | The present disclosure relates to a process for the preparation of high strength and high modulus polyethylene products/laminates consisting of steps such as providing a pre-dried, at least 50% disentangled ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) powder, feeding the UHMWPE powder having temperature ranging from −15° C. to 50° C., at the nip of at least one pair of heated, polished counter rotating calendaring rollers, rotating at different roller speeds to obtain at least one pre-laminate and hot stretching the pre-laminate(s) at a pre-determined temperature and pre-determined stretching speed to obtain high strength laminates. The laminates provided by the present disclosure have tensile strength ranging between 0.5 GPa and 3.0 GPa and tensile modulus ranging between 40 GPa and 200 GPa. |
