A thermoplastic polyurethane resin suitable for melt spinning is formed from a reaction mixture via a polymerization reaction. The reaction mixture includes an isocyanate component and a polyol component. The polyol component includes a first polyol that has a first number average molecular weight and a second polyol that has a second number average molecular weight. The first number average molecular weight is between 1,000 g/mol and 1,500 g/mol, and the second number average molecular weight is between 2,500 g/mol and 3,000 g/mol. One resin component formed by the first polyol via the polymerization reaction is defined as a low melting point segment and correspondingly has a first melting point between 170° C. and 185° C. Another resin component formed by the second polyol via the polymerization reaction is defined as a high melting point segment and correspondingly has a second melting point between 195° C. and 210° C.

An ultra-high-molecular-weight fiber manufacturing method is provided. The method includes: removing moisture in a mixed liquid to form a to-be-processed raw material, and supplying the to-be-processed raw material to a spinning device, where the spinning device heats the to-be-processed raw material in different stages, to make the to-be-processed raw material form a semi-molten state and be extruded toward a discharge outlet, to spin at least one fibril; cooling the at least one fibril, to form a first wire; if hardness of the first wire is not in a hardness range, selecting at least two discontinuous heating zones located in the spinning device to perform temperature adjustment; stretching, heating, and re-stretching the first wire, to form a second wire; winding the second wire around a drum; and stretching, drying, and re-stretching the second wire, to form a final wire product.
