A process for making polymer filaments which have a high tensile strength and a high modulus by stretching a polymer filament which contains a substantial amount, eg at least 25 wt of polymer solvent at a temperature between the swelling point and the melting point of the polymer. A solution of the polymer may be spun to a filament through a spinning aperture and the spun filament cooled to below the dissolution temperature of the polymer without substantial evaporation of solvent from the filament and then brought to a temperature between the swelling point and the melting point of the polymer, and stretched. By the process polyethylene filaments may be obtained having a tensile strength of at least 1.2 GPa. |
