    摘要: The invention relates to a process for producing gel-spun ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) fibres having high tensile strengths and improved creep rates wherein the UHMWPE used in said process comprises per thousand carbon atoms between 0.1 and 1.3 methyl side groups; and between 0.08 and 0.6 of methyl end groups; and wherein the overall draw ratio (DRoverall = DRfluid x DRgel x DRsolid) is at least 7000 provided that the fluid draw ratio DRfluid = DRsp x DRag is at least 100, wherein DRsp is the draw ratio in the spinholes and DRag is the draw ratio in the air gap. The invention further relates to gel-spun UHMWPE fibres produced thereof. The gel-spun UHMWPE fibres of the invention have a tensile strength of at least 4 GPa, and a creep rate as measured at 70°C under a load of 600 MPa of at most 6 x 10-7 sec-1. The gel-spun UHMWPE fibres produced thereof are useful in a variety of applications, the invention relating in particular to ropes, medical devices, composite articles and ballistic-resistant articles containing said UHMWPE fibres.

    摘要: The invention relates to gel - spun ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) fibers and to a process for producing thereof. Specifically, the invention relates a gel - spun UHMWPE fiber comprising an UHMWPE having an intrinsic viscosity in decaline at 135°C of at least 8 dl/g, and having a T1 relaxation time as measured by Solid - State proton NMR at 26°C of at least 600 ms. The invention further relates to ropes, nets and composites, in particular composites for ballistic applications containing the UHMWPE fibers of the invention.

    摘要: The invention relates to a process for making a polyethylene multifilament yarn comprising the steps of a) spinning multiple filaments from a solution comprising between 0.5 and 30 mass% of ultra high molecular weight polyethylene in a solvent; b) cooling the filament obtained to form gel filaments; c) removing at least partly the solvent from the gel filaments; d) drawing the filaments in at least one drawing step before, during or after removing the solvent, wherein the solution of step a) further comprises between 0.1 and 7 mass% of a sorbitol derivative and at step d) the filaments are drawn with a draw ratio of more than 15 to a strength of at least 1 GPa. The invention further relates to a high performance polyethylene multifilament yarn having a strength of at least 1 GPa, wherein the yarn comprises between 0.1 and 5 mass% of a sorbitol derivative.
