THE USE OF A BENDING OPTIMIZED PRODUCT SUCH AS ROPE

摘要

The invention relates to the use of a coated product having optimized resistance against repetitive bending, comprising a plurality strands, the strands comprising a plurality of spun ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) fibers, wherein said fibers are obtained by spinning an UHMWPE comprising olefinic branches (OB) and having an elongational stress (ES), and a ratio between the number of olefinic branches per thousand carbon atoms (OB/1 OOOC) and the elongational stress (ES) of at least 0.2.
