ARAMYD

Meta-Aramids (such as Nomex®) are highly resistant to temperature, chemical degradation, and abrasion. A meta-aramid fiber is usually manufactured by spinning in a chemical solution, known as wet spinning. M-aramid fibers generally have a tenacity of about 5.6g/den, which can compare to Mid-Tenacity nylon and polyester fibers. These fibers are unique in their ability to withstand tensile stress during exposure to flames and temperatures up to 400°C.
Applications for m-aramids include electrical insulation, protective clothing for firefighters and other first responders, auto racers and military personnel; along with automotive heat shields and aerospace applications.

Para-aramids (such as Kevlar® and alternatives) display high tensile strength (the maximum stress that a material can withstand) and modulus behavior (the tendency of a material to deform when force is applied). These fibers are created by the dry-jet, wet spinning method. The p-aramid fibers can be manufactured with tenacity around 23g/den and elongation at break ~3.5%.
P-aramid applications include ballistics protection, race cars, protective gloves, wire and cable, and hose reinforcement.

Aramid fiber is a class of strong synthetic fiber that is widely used for ballistic rated body armor fabric and composites. The term “aramid” is short for "aromatic polyamide". Aramid fibers appear as bright golden yellow filaments. Due to their outstanding strength-to-weight ratio and heat-resistant properties, aramid fibers play an essential role in applications such as composites, the automotive industry, military applications and can be easily integrated into textile applications in protective wear, offering higher protection against heat, flame, chemicals as well as maximum comfort and absolute reliability.
