Demo Plempolco BV Polymer Processing - I
Plempolco BV Part-1: This video shows the basic principle of solution(gel)-spinning of ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene into superstrong fibers like Dyneema(R). Dissolution of 1% ultra-high-molecular-weight PE in xylene showing gelation/crystallization into dis-entangled UHMW-PE film.
