	Aramid - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Aramid fiber (1961) is a fire-resistant and strong synthetic fiber.
		The Federal Trade Commission definition for Aramid fiber is "A manufactured fiber in which the fiber-forming substance is a long-chain synthetic polyamide in which at least 85% of the amide linkages are attached directly to two aromatic rings."
		Aramid fiber is produced by spinning a solid fiber from a liquid chemical blend.

	Aramid-reinforced hiking boot laces
		Whether known by aramid or Kevlar™;, it is the same fiber and is famous for being the key component in bullet proof vests.
		Trail Creek hiking boot laces are reinforced with Aramid 29 fiber.
		Aramid is a high tensile strength fiber with a unique combination of toughness, extra-high tenacity with excellent thermal stability.

	Aramid vs Pentex: J/105 Class Jibs (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
		Aramid fiber has established itself as the fiber of choice for high performance sailcloth and sail membrane laminate applications where a suitable balance of performance, price and durability is a must.
		An Aramid jib’s performance life should not be affected but the UV as long as it is has a suitable UV cover when stored on the roller furling system whilst at the dock.
		Aramid yarns do break down faster than Pentex yarns from flex degradation, but what you see from flex degradation is more a breakdown in breaking strength of the yarn, not stretch resistance.

	NEMA - Revised NEMA Standard Covers Aramid Papers Used for Electrical Insulation
		An aramid is a long-chain synthetic polyamide in which at least 85 percent of the amide linkages are attached directly to two aromatic rings.
		Aramid polymers can be processed into various forms, including resin, fiber, film, paper, or pressboard, but this standard applies only to a non-woven sheet made of 100 percent meta-aramid fibers, formed on wet-process paper machines, and calendered between rolls at high temperatures and pressures.
		Aramid paper covered by this standard is manufactured from a blend of two forms of fiber: (1) floc, which is short fiber cut from continuous filaments of drawn (stretched) aramid fiber, and (2) fibrids, which are microscopic particles of amorphous polymer.

	Aramid Panels
		Aramid fiber is an organic polymer (aromatic polyamide) produced from a liquid chemical blend, being spun into a solid fiber.
		Aramid fiber is better known by trade names such as Kevlar® (Dupont) and Twaron® (Teijin Twaron).
		Our aramid panels are produced from a 3000 denier aramid fabric, laminated in a prescribed number of layers, using a thermo formable adhesive film.

	Appendix B: Site Reports
		In an effort to increase the use of aramid fibers in the civil construction area, tests were conducted on rectangular columns at 50% scale of actual "Shinkansen" columns using aramid fabric and tape.
		Aramid fibers were considered more suitable than carbon fibers for use with rectangular columns because of their toughness, which would allow tighter wrapping at corners without damage to the fibers themselves.
		Properties of aramid fibers and sheets used are shown in Tables B.2 and B.3.

	Chapter 3: Aramid Fiber Based Linear Reinforcing Elements
		Aramid fiber reinforced composites are increasingly popular in Japan because of their high toughness/tenacity, high elongation at break (significantly exceeding that of carbon fiber based elements) and nonmagnetic/nonconductive characteristics.
		Due to their non-corrosive nature, aramid fiber reinforced Arapree and Technora rods were used to reinforce the prestressed girders making up the concrete berth at the Ehime Works of the Sumitomo Chemical Corp. Girder geometry and placement of the prestressing tendons are shown in Fig.
		The use of aramid Technora tendons on a 30 m test section was undertaken to demonstrate their use in connecting the precast L wall sections.

	Article - Para-aramid pulp reinforcement of elastomers
		Aramid fibres, as other fibres, improve dimensional stability and green strength before curing, and mechanical properties of the vulcanizates.
		Aramid pulp reinforcement is used in a number of high performance applications : Power transmission belts, hoses, conveyor belts, diaphragms, roll covers, footwear.
		High anisotropy of aramid pulp reinforcement is used in the design of highload transmission belts where it reduces the tendency of the cord layer to distort and become concave.

		Aramid non-woven webs also have a smooth surface, and are superior in high temperature applications to glassfiber webs.
		Also by using the foam process the density of the aramid fiber-containing webs or sheets produced may be much more closely regulated than when the water laid process is utilized, and the entire formation process is less expensive and more energy efficient.
		It is the primary object of the present invention to produce aramid fiber-containing layers, and printed circuit boards formed from one or more of such layers, which have enhanced utility and/or enhanced ease and reduced cost of production, compared to conventional aramid fiber- containing layers or boards.

		Navy use of aramid mooring line In 1988 a trial program was established to evaluate performance of aramid mooring line on Navy ships.
		Since new aramid line has similar construction to wire rope, it is installed on reels in the same manner as wire rope.
		In identifying a replacement size aramid line, the breaking strength of the lines should be as close as possible in strength.

	Sanding/cutting aramid honeycomb? - RC Groups
		I have never seen aramid (kevlar) honeycomb and would guess it will be very difficult or impossible to sand or cut.
		I was thinking about the nomex one, it is an aramid (kevlar) paper that is impregnated with phenolic resin.
		It is quite difficult to sand of course because of the aramid and the sanded surface is not very nice but at least it works.

		Aramid fibers are typically gold in color and require very sharp shears for cutting.
		Aramid is difficult to sand and is adversely affected by UV light so it is often buried under fiberglass or other material.
		Values shown are based on typical fiber data and should be used as a guide, not a specification.

	Aramid
		Aramid fibres have the highest strength to weight ratio compared to other commercially available fibres.
		Aramid is broadly similar in tensile strength to glass fibre, but can have up to twice the modulus.
		Aramid fibre properties depend on the structure used and can be tailored for high toughness or high modulus.
