Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE)

Lightweight & Abrasion Resistant

History
Ultra-High Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE) was first polymerized in the &#;s. The first UHMWPE fibers were commercialized in the late &#;s.

Composition
UHMWPE is a type of polyolefin that is composed of very long chains of polyethylene with a very high percentage of parallel orientation and high level of crystallinity. The extremely long polymer chains enable load transfer by strengthening intermolecular interactions. UHMWPE fibers are manufactured in a gel spinning process.
