Twaron is a high-performance synthetic fiber known for its strength and durability. It is a type of aramid fiber, similar to Kevlar, and is primarily used in applications requiring resistance to heat, abrasion, and impact. Common uses include protective clothing, tires, and various industrial products. Developed in the 1970s, Twaron is produced by the Dutch company Teijin Aramid. Its unique properties make it suitable for military and aerospace applications, as well as in the automotive industry. The fiber's lightweight nature combined with its high tensile strength makes it an essential material in modern engineering and safety equipment.
