AI Technical Summary
The lack of polar groups on the surface of existing UHMWPE fibers results in low adhesion to resin, which limits the realization of their excellent performance. Furthermore, existing modification methods suffer from cumbersome post-processing, high costs, and reduced mechanical properties.
SiO2 nanoparticles were chemically grafted with silane coupling agent KH550 to prepare SiO2 nanomonomers with disulfide bond structures on the surface. Through blending modification and extraction modification, the fibers were bidirectionally synergistically modified during the spinning process of UHMWPE fibers, establishing a bridging effect between the fiber interior and surface, and improving crystallinity and thermal stretching ratio.
The preparation process is simplified and the cost is reduced without compromising mechanical properties, and the surface and mechanical properties of UHMWPE fibers are significantly improved, making them suitable for industrial production.
