What is Aramid Paper?
Aramid paper is a high-performance synthetic material made from aramid fibers (aromatic polyamide), the same family of fibers used in Kevlar and Nomex. It is widely recognized for its outstanding electrical insulation properties, high temperature resistance, chemical stability, and low flammability.
Key features of aramid paper include:
- Excellent dielectric strength for electrical insulation
- Lightweight and durable
- Non-conductive and flame-resistant
- Resistance to chemicals, oils, and solvents
- Long-term stability under harsh conditions
These properties make it indispensable in transformers, motors, batteries, automotive parts, and aerospace equipment.
