Abstract (en)

This invention relates to a monofilament string for use in tennis rackets and so on, which string comprises at least two phases, a first phase comprising a core containing an amount of a first polymer and a second phase comprising a matrix enclosing the core, in which the second phase contains an amount of a second polymer. The core and/or the matrix contains an amount of respectively at least a third and/or fourth polymer that can be the same or different. The first and second polymer can be the same or different, in which the first and third polymer are different and the second and fourth polymer are different.
