NewStar® Meta-Aramid Applications

    NEWSTAR® meta-aramid is playing an irreplaceable role in a variety of different areas with its characteristics of heat stability, inherently flame resistance, electrical insulation, corrosion resistance, radiation resistance and good textile properties integrated together.

    Personal Protection EquipmentTaking the advantages of high temperature resistant and good spinning properties, NEWSTAR® meta-aramid has outstanding performance in the protective apparel area. With characteristics of no burning, no melting and no poisonous, clothing made from NEWSTAR® meta-aramid is widely used in metallurgy, construction, shipbuilding, petroleum, power, chemicals, forestry, firefighting and many other fields. It is the best material for protective clothing. According to different working environment, the protective uniform can be made from dope dyed fiber or easy dyeable raw white fiber. The dope dyed fiber is usually recommended to satisfy high standard applications such as fire fighting worker and oil field worker suits. Different blends of meta-aramid with other fibers are also available for special requirements.

    Environmental ProtectionNEWSTAR® meta-aramid works in two forms in environmental protection sector. One is needle punched non-wovens and the other is woven filtration fabrics. The final products are widely used in the metallurgy, cement, road construction areas to satisfy high-temperature gas filtration need. Needle punched non-wovens are available with or without scrims or anti-static fiber according to different standards and requirements.

    Meta-aramid PaperMETASTAR® Aramid Paper has excellent properties as high strength, low deformation, electrical insulation, high temperature resistance, corrosion and flame resistance.It is available in forms of insulation paper and structural materials paper.NEWSTAR® meta-aramid paper has its insulation class at H (180℃) while its mechanical and electrical property can reach F-class (150 ℃) or H-class (180 ℃). Since meta-aramid paper has no deformation and no melting under high temperature, it can not only highly improve the overheating and overloading capacity of mechanical and electrical products, but also make them durable, lighter and smaller in size.

    Main applications are insulation materials for transformers, electrical motors and power units. They exist in coils, winding layers, insulation materials between components, wires and fittings, motor and generator windings, slots, the interphases, interturns, and many others. It is also used in nuclear equipment such as dry-type transformers, traction motors, underground mine motor, microwave oven transformers and etc.
