Para-Aramid
Para-aramid
Para-aramids with high tensile strength and high modulus behavior are produced by the wet spinning method resulting in a fiber which consists of fully extended liquid crystal chains formed along the fiber axis with a high degree of crystallinity which increases the fibers strength.
Technical characteristics:
Breaking Tenacity: 23.0 g/d
Specific Gravity: 1.44
Elongation@Break: 3.5%
Tensile Modules: 555 g/d
Moisture Regain: 5.0 %
Application:
- Ballistic protection, both flexible (bullet-proof vests) and rigid (helmets, vehicles, etc.)
- Protective clothing (cut protection)
- All types of cable reinforcement (communication, optic cable, etc.)
- Elastomer reinforcement (tires, power transmission belts, conveyor belts, etc.)
- reinforcement of concrete columns (civil engineering)
- Composites in secondary structures (aeronautics), crash-proof structures (helicopters), impact protection, pressure vessels.
Dosage:
Consult with sales engineer according to the type of consumption
Function:
