Abstract

An injection-molding polyethylene composition consisting essentially of ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene having a molecular weight of at least about 1,650,000 and low-molecular-weight to high-molecular-weight polyethylene having a molecular weight of, for example, about 1500 to about 360,000. This composition is produced by a multistep polymerization process comprising a step of producing the ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene and a step of producing the low-molecular-weight or high-molecular-weight polyethylene.
