## Abstract Highly oriented monofilaments were produced by a high‐temperature die‐drawing process followed by tensile drawing. It was shown that a successful high‐speed process required high‐quality melt‐extruded rod. The mechanical properties and structure of the die‐drawn products were investigat

✦ Synopsis
A c o m p r e h e v e examination of the diedrawing behavior of polypropylene has been carried out, examining the effects of draw temperature, haul-off speed, and initial billet size. A range of oriented products was obtained and characterized, primarily by the determination of Young's modulus at room temperature, the maximum modulus being 20 GPa for a draw ratio R, of 23.2.
Using a large-scale machine, it was found poseible to produce drawn products at speeds up to 2 m h -1 at a draw temperature of 155OC and RA of 19.3. The dynamic mechanical behavior of several drawn materials was studied over the temperature range -80 to +80°C. It was of particular interest that the / 3 relaxation was found to be absent in samples of high draw ratio.
