Abstract

See full text

An ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene polymer has: a powder bulk density of at least 200 kg/m3; an intrinsic viscosity (I.V.) of at least 8 dl/g, as measured in accordance with ASTM D4020; and wherein, a specimen prepared from the ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene can be drawn in the absence of a solvent, at a total draw ratio of at least 50, when drawing at a drawing temperature of ≥Tm−30° C., wherein Tm is the melting temperature of the ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene polymer. A supported catalyst system for producing such UHMWPE polymers includes a transition metal complex and a particulate catalyst support including particles having a volume based median particle diameter of at least 0.3 micrometer. Articles derived from such polymers having excellent strength and modulus.
