Polyamide
 |
| Structure of Polyamide |
Polyamide (nylon)
fibre, first introduced in 1939, provided high strength and abrasion
resistance, good elasticity and uniformity as well as resistance to
moisture. Its excellent energy absorbing properties proved invaluable
in a range of end-uses from climbing ropes to parachute fabrics and
spinnaker sails. Polyamide reinforced tyres are still used much more
extensively in developing countries where the quality of road
surfaces has traditionally been poor as well as in the emerging
market for off-road vehicles worldwide. This contrasts to Western
Europe where average road speeds are much greater and the
heat-resistant properties of viscose are still valued.
