The possibility of obtaining mechanically coherent films (precursors for subsequent strain hardening) from reactor powders of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) synthesized on supported modified Ziegler-Natta and metallocene catalysts was studied. The compaction pressure at room temperature, as well as the temperature and sintering time of the compacts were varied. A comparative study of the fine structure of powders, their thermodynamical properties, molecular mobility in near-surface nanolayers, and their changes during monolithization under various temperature-time conditions was conducted. It is shown that in the optimal mode, UHMWPE powders synthesized on a Ziegler-Natta catalyst are better compacted and sintered than UHMWPE powders synthesized on a metallocene catalyst. Structural and kinetic criteria for the suitability of reactor powders for monolithization are discussed. Keywords: reactor powder, ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, compaction/sintering, plasma-induced thermoluminescence, differential scanning calorimetry, scanning electron microscopy, precursors for strain hardening.
