Aramids

Sontara® Aramid Fabrics offer a broad range of high-performance technical nonwovens that are tailor-made for industrial applications.

Our Sontara^® Aramid Fabrics can be used for fabric liners and apparel interfacings for turnout gear, fire-blocking materials, protection of batteries, transformers, and high-speed equipment, filtration, and many other uses. All Sontara^® Aramid Fabrics are created with proprietary Sontara^® technology. Our unique production process ensures that all products are soft, drapable, binder- and resin-free and offer excellent dimensional stability. With supply and trademark license agreements with DuPont™ in place, 足彩外围网站 is delighted to offer nonwoven fabrics containing Kevlar® and Nomex®. Sontara^® Aramid fabrics have been produced at the Sontara^® Old Hickory, TN, plant since 1987. Sontara^® is happy to partner to customize products to meet specific requirements.

Sontara® Kevlar® advantages

Low shrinkage allows it to maintain its dimensional stability at high temperatures.
Ideal for applications where high thermal protection and flame resistance is needed.
Cut resistance, making it ideal for applications requiring durability.
High homogeneity, fabric integrity and dimensional stability makes it ideal for resin impregnation.
Soft and drapable.

Sontara® Nomex® advantages

High thermal performance in end-use applications requiring durability, strength retention, low heat release and non-flammability.
Nomex® SL provides protection at high temperatures.
Bulky structure, which allows easy saturation. Smooth surface area provides excellent surface finish and adhesion.
Excellent electrical insulation properties.
Light weight for applications like batteries.

The Sontara® Kevlar® SL Type E-89 is ideal for:

Protective apparel/turn out gears

Unique features and benefits of Sontara® Kevlar® SL Type E-89:

Minimal shrinkage at high temperatures or when flame is present — the excellent dimensional stability of Kevlar®, combined with the flame-resistant qualities of Nomex®, produces a fabric that will resist flame shrinkage, high temperature and break-open flame better than Nomex® alone.
Customized fiber blends can be produced to create a unique fabric designed to fit your specific thermal protection needs
Excellent surface for laminating to various films and coatings
Available in range of basis weights, which allows engineered multi-layer barriers to meet various Thermal Protective Performance (TPP) requirements
