About Para-aramidPara-aramid belongs to the aromatic polyamide family. The full name is poly (p-phenylene terephthalamide), abbreviated as PPTA or Aramid.
Para-aramid is called one of the three high performance fibers in the world, with carbon fiber and high density high modulus polyethylene (HDPE) as the other two. Only several countries like the U.S, Russia, South Korea and China can produce it.
TAPARAN® Para-aramid TAPARAN®Para aramid is our brand name. It is widely used in the fields of automobile hose, optical fiber, friction and sealing and personal protection. It possesses outstanding properties of high strength, high modulus, high temperature resistance and flame resistance. It has advantages of relative low density, fatigue resistance, tear and shear resistance, dimension stability. It has irreplaceable position in areas like personal protection, aerospace, electrical communication, and etc.
Key CharacteristicsHigh Strength and High Modulus: Due to the high hydrogen bonds, the strength of Taparan®para aramid can reach up to above 28g/D. Its specific strength is 5-6 times that of steel wire , its specific modulus is 2-3 times that of steel wire or glass fiber , and its flexibility is 2 times that of steel wire while the weight is only 1/5 that of the steel wire.
High Temperature Resistance: Taparan®para aramid can be used continuously in a very wide temperature range from -196℃ to 204℃.It has no decomposing or melting at 500℃. Its tenacity remains 75% after 100hrs under 200℃.
Good Chemical Resistance: Taparan®para aramid is acid and alkali resistant, anti-aging with good adhesive force in rubber.
Main Products TAPARAN® para-aramid filament: It is available in 600Denier , 750Denier, 840 Denier, 1000 Denier, 1500 Denier, 3000 Denier, 6000 Denier and 9000 Denier.
TAPARAN® Para-aramid solution dyed filament : Solution dyed para-aramid filament. It is available in 600Denier , 750Denier, 840 Denier, 1000 Denier, 1500 Denier, 3000 Denier, 6000 Denier and 9000 Denier.
TAPARAN® Para-aramid Staple Fiber: It is cut from the crimped filament. It is available in lengths of 38mm, 51mm, 76mm with linear density of 1.5D to 4D. Due to its good properties in high strength, high modulus, heat resistance and cut-proof, it is widely used for thermal resistant nonwovens, spun yarns, covering yarns etc.
TAPARAN® Para-aramid Pulp: It is made from TAPARAN® Para-aramid filament (linear density of 1.5D). Due to its good properties in heat resistance, friction resistance, high strength, high modulus, it is widely used for friction and sealing materials, composites and aramid paper.
