What is Kevlar?
Kevlar is a heat-resistant and strong synthetic fiber, related to other aramids such as Nomex and Technora. Developed at DuPont in 1965, the high-tensile-strength material is known for its use in bulletproof vests, combat helmets, and other protective equipment. It is also used in tires, racing sails, and fiber optic cables due to its high strength-to-weight ratio.
