(polyestertime) -- Teijin Techno Products
Limited, a Teijin group company producing advanced aramid fibers, announced
today its development of the world's first mass-producible aramid nanofiber to
offer reliable heat and oxidation resistance together with high quality.
Until now, aramid nanofibers have been produced only in laboratories, so
this first commercially viable product represents a significant step forward in
the evolution of this promising new material. Teijin Techno Products' nanofiber,
which is uniformly sized with a diameter of just several hundred nanometers is
based on Teijin's proprietary Teijinconex heat-resistant meta-aramid.
It
will be marketed in the form of nonwoven sheet for separators in lithium ion
batteries (LIBs). Commercial production is targeted at 2014. |
