摘要:
The present invention pertains to a polyethylene film and a process for manufacturing such film. The polyethylene film may have a ratio between the strength in a first direction in the film plane and the strength in a second direction in the film plane perpendicular to the first direction in the range of 0.1-10:1, the strength in at least one direction being at least 0.2 Gpa. The process for manufacturing a polyethylene film may have a starting UHMWPE polymer with an average molecular weight of at least 500,000 grams/mole, an elastic shear modulus determined directly after melting at 160° C. of at most 1.4 MPa, and a Mw/Mn ratio of at most 6 to a solvent-free compacting process and a stretching process under such conditions that at no point during the process the temperature of the intermediate polymer film is raised to a value above its melting point.

An UHMWPE film having a tensile strength of at least 2.0 GPa, a tensile energy to break of at least 30 J/g, an Mw of at least 500 000 gram/mole, and a Mw/Mn ratio of at most 6, and a film width of at least 5 mm. The film may be manufactured via a process which comprises subjecting a starting UHMWPE with a weight average molecular weight of at least 500 000 gram/mole, an elastic shear modulus determined directly after melting at 160° C. of at most 1.4 MPa, and a Mw/Mn ratio of at most 6 to a compacting step and a stretching step under such conditions that at no point during the processing of the polymer its temperature is raised to a value above its melting point. The film may be used as starting material in any applications where high tensile strength and high energy to break are important. Suitable applications include ballistic applications, ropes, cables, nets, fabrics, and protective applications.

Method and apparatus for preparing a silicone hydrogel lens including heating a cast lens to drive off an organic diluent by moving the cast lens continuously through heating and cooling zones to provide a first-in-first-out handling system. The zones are either horizontally or vertically arranged. An apparatus embodiment of a vertical heating zone includes outer and inner concentric shells arranged in a heating chamber. One of the shells rotates about a vertical axis relative to the other. The outer shell has a spiral rail extending into the space between the outer and inner shells and the inner shell has a plurality of vertical ribs spaced about its periphery. A lens carrier placed on the rail is engaged and driven along the spiral rail by one of the ribs responsive to the relative motion between the outer and inner shells.
