Kevlar®
The high-tech material and its applications
Kevlar® is the most popular product name of an aramid fibre, created by DuPont. Aramid fibers are a class of heat-resistant and strong synthetic fibres. The name is a shortened form of aromatic polyamide, and they are normaly used in high tech applications where an extraordinary ratio between strength and weight or high resistance to temperature is required, e.g. motor sports, high-end sailing boots, bullet proof jackets, space and aviation technology, to name but a few. The usage of Kevlar® in the tire construction enables to improve material resistance to torsion, tension and heat. delivering a more precise driving.
