The invention is directed to an end-for-end splice that joins two ropes. The splice comprises a helical section and a tapered section and, in these sections, strands of one rope are tucked into the other rope in a helical pattern. Moreover, in the tapered section, the tucked in strands have a decreasing volume in the direction of away from the center of the splice. This splice configuration was found to lead to a relatively small diameter and excellent CBOS performance.
The invention is directed to a polarizer comprising an elongated element comprising a polyolefin, wherein the elongated element is unidirectionally drawn at a draw ratio within an overdrawing region and wherein the elongated element has a polarizing effect of at least 5%. The invention further relates to a method for producing said polarizer by drawing an undrawn or partially drawn elongated element within an overdrawing region and to particular uses and applications of said polarizer.
