Abstract

A composite material composed of continuous high strength fibers such as carbon, aramid or glass, and ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMW PE), wherein the UHMW PE comprises a continuous matrix among and surrounding the fibers. The resultant composite material exhibits extraordinarily high strength, stiffness and other fiber dominated properties in the directions parallel to the fibers and exhibits its lowest strength and stiffness in directions perpendicular to the fibers. It also exhibits superb abrasion resistance, good impact strength, excellent chemical resistance, a low coefficient of friction and other beneficial properties of UHMW PE.
