Nomex® by DuPont
Nomex® - unrivalled heat and flame resistance. Nomex® is a meta-aramid fibre with strong resistance to high temperatures. The production of Nomex® fibres was developed in the early 1960s and launched in 1967 by the American company DuPont. With a similar tensile strength to polyamide fibres, Nomex® starts to decompose at 370 °C and chars at 400 °C.
