dc.description.abstractDegradation studies were conducted on high performance polyamide (PA) 6 monofilament fibers prepared with various types of thermoplastic thin film coatings. Polyether, polyester and polycarbonate based polyurethane thin film coatings were used with changes in the molecular weight of the polyols and NCO index. It was found that the thermoplastic coating significantly protected the core PA6 monofilament fibers from degradation, analyzed through sliding abrasive wear and accelerated weathering irrespective of the type and nature of the thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) thin film coating. The structural and physical changes were analyzed after exposure to degradation tests. Polycarbonate based TPU thin film coated PA6 monofilament fibers showed significant resistance towards degradation factors as compared to the polyether and polyester based TPU thin film coatings. The TPU thin film coated PA6 monofilament fibers are potential candidates as material for fishing gearen_US
