Some of the leading brands in this industry include Dynema? and Spectra? are made from UHMWPE (Ultra High Molecular Weight PolyEthylene), a long chain, high strength, oriented strand, synthetic fiber with very high strength and high abrasion resistance. This fiber is also known as HMPE (High Modulus PolyEthylene). Honeywell International produces a similar UHMWPE fiber, marketed as Spectra?. Both Dyneema (Dynema) and Spectra offer nearly identical characteristics are can be used interchangeably in sailing applications, depending on where you source your line.
Sharing some winning properties in UHMWPE
1/ Ultra high strength versus weight (15 times stronger than steel, on weight per weight ratio)
2/ Low elongation at breaking point
3/ High resistance to UV radiation
4/ Chemically inert
5/ Floats on water
6/ Highly flexible
7/ High energy absorption
8/ No smell or taste, non-toxic
9/ Self-lubricating, with low friction
