## Abstract Various blend ratios of highβdensity polyethylene (HDPE) and ultrahighβmolecularβweight polyethylene (UHMWPE) were prepared with the objective of determining their suitability as biomaterials. Although the presence of HDPE in the blends enabled melt processing, the presence of UHMWPE he

The ultradrawing behavior of gel films of plain ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) and UHMWPE/low molecular weight polyethylene (LMWPE) blends was investigated using one-and two-stage drawing processes. The drawability of these gel films were found to depend significantly on the temper
Fibers of ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMW-PE) were prepared with the gel fiber drawing method, and the solvent and extraction solvent used were a general kerosene and gasoline, respectively. The thermal behaviors and mechanical properties of the fiber were studied using thermal analysi
