Abstract

Various ways of producing high-strength and high-modulus flexible-chain polymers are compared. Multistage zone drawing is considered as a promising technique, whose potentialities are still great. It is shown that the mechanical properties of end products drastically depend on many structural parameters of starting material, such as the molecular weight and molecular weight distribution, the morphology, the length and regularity of the folds, the number and type of defects, as well as on the temperature-rate conditions of the drawing. It is emphasized that the transformation of the initial structure into a microfibrillar one on necking occurs through the unfolding of macromolecules and subsequent stress-induced crystallization. With account of the kinetic theory of strength and of the influence of initial morphology on the strengthening and mechanical destruction that compete during the drawing, one can choose an appropriate morphology of the starting material and an optimum drawing regime. The fine structure of ultradrawn polymers is investigated in detail. The structural basis for the discrepancy in experimentally achieved mechanical properties and theoretical estimates are discussed and further improvement of polymer mechanical behavior is considered.
