Self-heating effect on ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene fibres and composites

This paper investigates the self-heating effect observed during testing ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) fibres and their composites, in particular Dyneema® SK76 fibres and Dyneema® HB26 laminates. Monotonic and cyclic tests were carried out at strain rates between 0.00833 s−1 and 2...
