  • High modulus polyethylene fiber bundles as reinforcement for brittle matrices
    Patent number: 4524101
    Abstract: A process for producing bundles of high modulus polyethylene fibers for reinforcement in composites wherein the matrix is a brittle material such as cement, concrete, plaster of Paris or the like. The process involves passing high modulus polyethylene yarn through high pressure nip rolls to deform the individual filaments and to form a loosely adhering unitary mass or bundle of filaments which is then chopped into short lengths for use as fibrous reinforcement in composites. In a preferred embodiment, the yarn is twisted prior to being passed through the nip rolls.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: July 27, 1984
    Date of Patent: June 18, 1985
    Assignee: Celanese Corporation
    Inventors: Nancy C. Eickman, Walter Fabisiak, Robert Dix
