Summary: | The present disclosure relates to a compact polymer gel consisting of disentangled ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (dis-UHMWPE), at least one nucleator, at least one filler and at least one fluid medium. The present disclosure also provides a process for the preparation of the compact polymeric gel and fibers from the compact polymeric gel of both low and high denier values. The fibers prepared in accordance with the present process have tensile strength ranging from 2.5 to 13 GPa, tensile modulus ranging from 100 to 270 GPa. |
