The inherently flame-resistant properties provided by Nomex® mean that those who rely on it are safe and protected from the hazards they face on the job every day. It is that knowledge and sense of security that enables them to concentrate on the task at hand, and to make a substantial contribution to things that are important in our everyday lives.

Advanced thermal technology was born more than 30 years ago when DuPont scientists created a fiber with an extraordinary combination of high-performance heat- and flame-resistant properties, as well as superior textile characteristics.

In both fiber and sheet forms, Nomex® helps people and materials to perform, even in highly aggressive environments.

Professionals all around the world count on their skills and savvy to prevail in the face of danger. That's why in industries like firefighting, race car driving, power generation and plant operation, professionals rely on Nomex® as the vital link between what is possible and what is accomplished in essential thermal protection.

DuPont's family of Nomex® fiber products provides outstanding heat and flame resistance and offers excellent textile properties. Applications include filters, industrial coated fabrics, etc., etc.

Nomex® is also used for electrical insulation in both paper and pressboard forms, where its inherent dielectric strength, mechanical toughness and thermal stability provide high reliability in the most demanding applications.
