The following are typical application examples and technical details of aramid fibers in a number of fields:
I. Special protection areas
♦ Military ballistic helmets
- It is made of aramid fibers impregnated with epoxy resin in hot press molding, which guarantees bulletproof performance (can withstand 9mm Barabellum bullets) and at the same time reduces the weight by 60% compared with traditional steel helmets.
♦ Firefighting Protective Clothing
- Using aramid 1313’s high-temperature resistant features (220°C long-term stability, instantaneous resistance to 560°C), made of firefighting clothing outer layer, non-flammable and non-melting in the event of fire, high temperature to form a carbonized heat insulation layer to protect the wearer.
II. High-end Industry and Transportation
♦ Aerospace Structural Components
- Aramid 1414 is used in aircraft honeycomb structural panels, combining light weight (density 1.44g/cm³) and high strength, significantly reducing fuel consumption (1kg weight loss saves about $1 million).
♦ Automotive airbags
- Aramid fiber woven airbag fabrics can withstand high pressure impact at the moment of collision, the toughness is better than traditional materials.
♦ Tire cord
- Para-aramid is used as a reinforcing layer in tires to improve abrasion resistance and reduce creep deformation at high speeds.
III. Building and energy innovation
♦ Seismic reinforcement of buildings
- 415g/m2 aramid fiber cloth is pasted on the surface of building components to enhance the seismic performance without increasing the significant self-weight (the thickness of the adhesive layer in the case is precisely controlled to ensure the bonding effect).
♦ Power Battery Protection Layer
- Multi-layer aramid composites are used in new energy vehicle battery cases to protect against collision impacts through a layered energy absorption mechanism.
IV. Electronics and Outdoor Equipment
♦ Fiber Optic Cable Reinforcement Core
- Aramid fibers are used as a tensile protection layer for fiber optic cables to guarantee the stability of communication transmission.
♦ Climbing Rope
- Aramid ropes are strong and UV resistant to carry weight and cushion climbing impacts.
V. Key performance-driven applications
| Case (law) | Core Performance Support |
| Ballistic helmets lightweight | 5 times stronger than steel wire + high energy absorption |
| Firefighting suits for high temperature protection | 560 ℃ does not melt + self-extinguishing features away from the flame |
| Aircraft honeycomb panel weight reduction | High modulus (>182GPa) + low density |
| Tire creep resistance | Low shrinkage + high dimensional stability |
Technology extension:
The application of aramid 1313 honeycomb panels in aircraft bulkheads expands the lightweight design boundary6 while the exploration of para-aramids (e.g., Kevlar) in the field of artificial muscles still requires a breakthrough in fiber orientation technology.
