Excellent strength and high modulus, also outstanding resistance to impact and heat.
Twaron Para-aramid Staple Fiber
Twaron® is a para-aramid (poly-paraphenylene terepthalamide) and is available in staple fiber form. Compared to meta-aramids (Conex® and Nomex®), Twaron® exhibit greater strength, but at the same time exhibit lower chemical resistance. Twaron's® are widely used in numerous applications that require (i) strength 5 times more than steel (ii) fatigue resistance and (iii) dimensional stability.
Twaron® staple fibers may be spun in 100% form or as a blend with other high-performance synthetic fibers. Primary spun yarn end-use applications include protective blankets, gloves, and apparel to protect against cutting, heat, flames and sparks.
