High strength/high modulus polyethylene: synthesis and processing of ultra-high molecular weight virgin powders

High strength/high modulus tapes and filaments were prepared directly from virgin ultra-high molecular weight (UHMW) polyethylene powders, by low temperature compression moulding and subsequent tensile drawing. We report in detail on the effects of various polymerization and compression moulding var...

Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	High strength/high modulus tapes and filaments were prepared directly from virgin ultra-high molecular weight (UHMW) polyethylene powders, by low temperature compression moulding and subsequent tensile drawing. We report in detail on the effects of various polymerization and compression moulding variables on the drawability of virgin UHMW polyethylene powders.
