Abstract Photodegradation of three types of polyethylene twines namely, polyethylene
fibrillated tape twine, polyethylene flat tape twine and polyethylene monofilament
twines were studied by exposing them to sunlight and artificial UV radiation. The
percentage residual strength varied in the samples, the monofilament with the highest
residual strength followed by :fibrillated tape twine and flat tape twine. A plot of the
difference between the breaking strengths of the fibrillated tape twine and the mono:
filament twines against any given period of exposure exhibited a linear relationship.
