Abstract	Ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE)/WS$_{2}$ nanoparticle fibers were prepared by adding WS$_{2}$ nanoparticles treated by coupling agent in the precursor solution of UHMWPE. The influence of WS$_{2}$ nanoparticles on the microstructure and properties of UHMWPE fibers was characterized by SEM, TGA, mechanical property measurement and bullet-shock test. The results showed that WS$_{2}$ nanoparticles can be uniformly dispersed in the UHMWPE fiber. After incorporating of WS$_{2}$ nanoparticles, UHMWPE fibers became stiffer and tougher than the pristine ones. Particularly, the modulus of the fiber increased from 1203 to 1326 cN/dtex. Furthermore, UHMWPE/WS$_{2}$ fibers showed an improved thermal stability.
