Bookmark or Share- What is Kevlar®? - DuPontKevlar® is inherently flame resistant—protecting against thermal hazards up to 800 degrees Fahrenheit. Additionally, Kevlar® fibers won’t melt, drip or support combustion. The high tensile strength of DuPont™ Kevlar® resists ballistics, heat and punctures.
- How does Kevlar work? | Why is Kevlar so strong? - Explain that StuffA simple explanation of the science behind Kevlar, the amazing super-strong bulletproof material made by DuPont.
- Kevlar - WikipediaKevlar (para-aramid) [2] is a strong, heat-resistant synthetic fiber, related to other aramids such as Nomex and Technora. Developed by Stephanie Kwolek at DuPont in 1965, [3][2][4] the high-strength material was first used commercially in the early 1970s as a replacement for steel in racing tires.
- Stronger Than Steel: How Chemist Stephanie Kwolek Invented Kevlar - ForbesToday, most of us know it as Kevlar. Kevlar works because, under the right conditions, the molecules arrange themselves end-to-end, parallel to the length of the fiber, and form strong hydrogen...
- Introducing Kevlar ® EXO - DuPontKevlar® is a heat-resistant, synthetic, lightweight fiber that delivers high tensile strength that brings improved protection and performance across a range of industries and applications.
