F-12 series products have been widely used in helicopters, fixed-wing aircraft engines, aerospace high-pressure gas cylinders, rocket shells and outer thermal protection layers, airship skin materials, personal protective equipment, high-performance radomes, rubber products, special ropes and webbands, etc.
Aramid fibers feature some general characteristics that distinguish them from other synthetic fibers:
