They are used in aerospace and military applications, for ballistic-rated body armor fabric and ballistic composites, in marine cordage, marine hull reinforcement, and as an asbestos substitute. The concept is just like JEEP vs SUV. This produces aromatic polyamide threads which are further refined to produce fibres. These fibres are woven into a very light, very strong cloth. Amide groups (CO-NH) form strong bonds that are resistant to solvents and heat.

Para” refers to the specific linkage position of the aromatic rings. Longitudinal alignment of the hydrogen bonds enables high tensile strength and modulus. The name is a portmanteau of aromatic polyamide.

The fibers offer a set of properties which make them particularly useful in armor, clothing and a wide range of other applications.

In order to get maximum benefit from this material, VKis specially treated with a high concentration of resilient, food quality lubricants and heavy PTFE dispersion. Peacock Fibres are environmentally responsible recyclers of aramid textile waste. We manufacture specialist fillings from a range of raw materials, both virgin and recycled. We also supply craft fabrics.

Like graphite, it has a slightly negative axial coefficient of thermal expansion, which means aramid laminates can be made thermally stable in dimensions. Unlike graphite, it is very resistant to impact and abrasion damage. It can be made waterproof when combined with other materials like.

Due to these characteristics, aramid fibers are mainly used in demanding security applications. Aramid is a class of strong, synthetic fibers. Typical applications for laser cutting of aramid are bullet-proof vests, cut resistant clothing and technical components in vehicle construction. When this cloth is combined with resin it produces a composite material which is times stronger than steel with excellent torque and tensile strength, and excellent impact-resistant properties too. This section holds a range of woven aramid fabrics.

The majority of the Composites4U aramid fabrics range is produced using twaron fibre, this fibre is comparable to kevlar fibre in both mechanical and handling but comes at a lower cost. Filament produced in France by the Nanovia company, based in Brittany. This filament, for industrial and consumer use, combines ease of printing and the quality of a mechanically resistant material.

The aramid fibre size distribution. Finite Fiber aramid pulp is a dry processed engineered low fibrillation, short aramid fibril. Aramids have inherent high-heat and high-strength properties making it a practical choice in a variety of extreme application environments.

Kevlar and Twaron are para-aramids.

To overcome this, hybrid composite fabrication is done along with basalt fiber and epoxy resin. Synthetic fibers are the most common. Although there are many types of synthetic fibers, glass, carbon and aramid fibers represent the most important. It was the first organic fiber with sufficient tensile strength and modulus to be used in advanced composites.

The matrix for high performance composites is usually epoxy resin. Used in many applications from tyres and racing sails to body armour due to its high tensile strength-to-weight ratio.
