The project deals with the processing conditions required for gel               spinning of vinyl polymers into high modulus fibers.  Gel                       spinning involves dissolution of the polymers in a solvent,                     quenching into a gel filament, then drying and drawing to a high                draw ratio.  The work to be done for one year deals with 1)                     microbeam x.ray studies of high strength fibers, 2) chemical                    modification of poly (vinyl alcohol) fibers, and 3) dynamic                     mechanical spectroscopy of gel spun fibers.
