Abstract
AbstractVarious high‐density polyethylenes were brominated in order to eliminate the inherent vinyl Unsaturation in the polymer. They were then drawn uniaxially at three different temperatures, and the resulting fibrous materials were studied under a scanning electron microscope. It was found that the brominated samples yielded transparent fibrous materials that had more regular fibrillar structure and fewer surface overgrowths, cracks, and voids compared with the unbrominated polymers drawn under identical conditions. Bromination also appeared to improve the mechanical properties of the drawn and the undrawn polymer. High‐density polyethylene that had no inherent vinyl Unsaturation also yielded transparent fibrous material with fibrillar structure similar to that of brominated polymers.
