Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene has a high average molecular weight, and high molecular weight polyethylene has high hardness and excellent wear resistance. However, since the intermolecular cohesive force is 9iI, the flowability is poor and molding is extremely difficult, so molding is generally performed under pressure and high temperature, but when a special shape of ski is required, U Since processing is performed by % cutting, products cannot be supplied at low prices. In addition to the above-mentioned pressure press method, extrusion molding using comb extrusion and special single- or double-screw equipment is also being considered, but the productivity is poor and the cost is about the same as the press cutting method. lacking in sex. Special rM Showa 51-90360
! The publication discloses a screw used in the kneading and forming process. However, even with this disclosed technology, the flowability of the resin is not improved in terms of wood quality, and the melting in the molding machine is difficult.
Since the fluidity of msl fat is still poor, it can only be molded slowly in small quantities, resulting in poor productivity and high costs. Furthermore, molding of this resin requires a high temperature of 240 to 250° C., similar to the above-mentioned pressure pressing method or extrusion method, which causes thermal decomposition of the resin, resulting in a decrease in molecular weight and a decrease in wear resistance. Sara busy #open wB58-59243
The publication discloses an example in which 30% of an aliphatic cyclic hydrocarbon polymer was added after #I to facilitate molding. Although the resin is diluted by the additive and the flowability is slightly improved, it is still not sufficient, so molding using this method can only be applied to specific molding equipment such as extrusion molding machines, and the concentration of the ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene itself is Due to its thinness, chemical resistance,
Wear resistance decreases.
