An aramid is a polyamide where at least 85% of the amide bonds are attached to aromatic rings. The first aramid produced was called Nomex® introduced by Du Pont in 1961. Aramid offers low conductivity, exceptional strength and resistance to heat, chemicals, and abrasion. Aramid is fire resistant and more suited for flight crews comfort, but less resistant to high temperatures than Nomex®. Aramid is more breathable and comfortable for flight crews, whereas Nomex® would be better for combat pilots.
