1. What is Kevlar?
(Keywords: Kevlar properties, aramid fiber, polymer composite)
Developed by DuPont in the 1960s, Kevlar® (poly-paraphenylene terephthalamide) is a high-performance para-aramid synthetic fiber. This advanced polymer composite offers:
5x stronger than steel (weight-for-weight)
1/5 density of steel
Exceptional heat resistance
Superior flexibility and fatigue resistance
Widely used in ballistic protection, Kevlar® has become the gold standard for industrial safety applications requiring puncture resistance without compromising mobility.
