Aramid Fiber
Aramid fibres are aromatic polyamide fibres supplied in forms suited to reinforcement, protection and other technical uses.
Product & engineering
Understand the product.
Aramid Fiber is man-made high-performance fiber, with molecules that are characterized by relatively rigid polymer chains. These molecules are linked by strong hydrogen bonds that transfer mechanical stress very efficiently, making it possible to use chains of relatively low molecular weight. Aramid fibers are a class of heat-resistant and strong synthetic fibers. They are used in aerospace and military applications, for ballistic-rated body armor fabric and ballistic composites, in bicycle tires, and as an asbestos substitute. The name is a portmanteau of "aromatic polyamide". They are fibers in which the chain molecules are highly oriented along the fiber axis, so the strength of the chemical bond can be exploited.
Para-aramid and meta-aramid constructions have different property profiles. Filaments, staple fibres and processed forms serve different conversion routes.
Fibre strength does not directly equal finished composite or fabric strength. Orientation, bonding and environmental exposure influence the final article.
What turns activity into demand
Aramid fibres provide specialised mechanical or thermal behaviour, with fibre type and conversion determining the application.
The commercial boundary
Separate fibres from woven textiles, composites and finished protective products.
