A process for the manufacture of filaments, tapes and films that possess a shish-kebab morphology. This is effected in that for instance UHMW PE after extrusion is stretched at a temperature between the melting temperature (Tm) and a critical temperature (Tc) and subsequently cooled in stressed condition. The stretching rate is between 0.1 and 10 [sec.].sup.-1.

Process for the preparation of continuous objects of plastics

The stretching rate is between 0.1 and 10 sec..sup.-1.

Process for the preparation of continuous objects of plastic

The invention relates to a process for injection molding articles having a number of layers of different plastic materials that are sequentially and/or coaxially injected, in plasticized form, into a mould. Prior to injection, the different plastic materials are brought into a hollow chamber in a preselected order and amounts, with the aid of separate injection units or by means of a distributor, which is made of elementary modules, each of which is capable of creating a certain combination and configuration of plastic materials in the chamber. The contents of the chamber are then injected into the mould.

Process for injection moulding multilayered articles

A process is described for the preparation of highly stretchable high-molecular weight polyolefin gel articles and polyolefin gel articles prepared therefrom having combined high tensile strength and high modulus, wherein an initial shaped article of the polyolefin is exposed to or contacted with a swelling agent to form an intermediate swollen article, which is then converted to the gel state and then subsequently subjected to stretching at up to relatively high draw ratios.

Process for preparing polyolefin gel articles as well as for preparing

A continuous process is described wherein suspensions of high molecular weight polymers are readily transformed into solutions thereof for extrusion, to make gel filaments, tapes, tubes and films, by use of an extruder having alternate mixing and transporting sections and operating at mechanical shear rates of from 30 to 2,000 sec..sup.-1, and with relatively short residence times therein.
