A study of catalysts for synthesizing ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene

A chemist from RUDN University as a part of a team of researchers has synthesized new highly active catalysts for the production of ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, which is necessary in the production of bulletproof vests, pipes, parachutes, prostheses and much more. The use of the new catalysts will significantly reduce the production cost of this type of polyethylene. The article was published in the journal Inorganica Chimica Acta.
