We address the immobilization of single-site catalyst on the graphite oxide (GO) surface using methylaluminoxane. Ethylene polymerization was performed using the immobilized catalyst and the nanocomposite of ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE)/GO with less entanglement density was obtained. It was observed that the drawability, mechanical and thermal properties of the produced polymer significantly are affected by the anchoring of polymer chains to the GO nanosheets. The orientation and location of crystalline lamellae and nanosheets were verified by microscopic techniques. Besides, X-ray analysis demonstrated the dispersion of GO within the UHMWPE phase and crystallinity of UHMWPE/GO nanocomposites enhanced during drawing process. [GRAPHICS]
