The instant invention discloses fibers. The fibers according to the instant invention comprise a polyethylene composition comprising: (a) less than or equal to 100 percent by weight of the units derived from ethylene; and (b) less than 20 percent by weight of units derived from one or more -olefin comonomers; wherein the polyethylene composition has a density in the range of 0.920 to 0.970 g/cm.sup.3, a molecular weight distribution (M.sub.w/M.sub.n) in the range of 1.70 to 3.5, a melt index (I.sub.2) in the range of 0.2 to 1000 g/10 minutes, a molecular weight distribution (M.sub.z/M.sub.w) in the range of less than 2.5, vinyl unsaturation of less than 0.1 vinyls per one thousand carbon atoms present in the backbone of the composition.

Fabric of continuous graphitic fiber yarns from living graphene molecules
09657415 · 2017-05-23 · ·

Multi-functional and high-performing fabric comprising a first layer of yarns woven to form the fabric wherein the yarns comprise at least one unitary graphene-based continuous graphitic fiber comprising at least 90% by weight of graphene planes that are chemically bonded with one another having an inter-planar spacing d.sub.002 from 0.3354 nm to 0.4 nm as determined by X-ray diffraction and an oxygen content less than 5% by weight. A majority of the graphene planes in such a continuous graphitic fiber are parallel to one another and parallel to a fiber axis direction. The graphitic fiber contains no core-shell structure, has no helically arranged graphene domains or domain boundaries, and has a porosity level less than 5% by volume, more typically less than 2%, and most typically less than 1% (practically pore-free).
