Estimating the term…
An aramid-based paper comprising at least 90 wt. % of aramid material, the aramid material including at least one of aramid shortcut and aramid fibrid, the paper including at most 40 wt. % aramid pulp, calculated on the total amount of aramid material, wherein the paper includes 0.1-10 wt. % of polyamido-amine epichlorohydrin (PAE). It has been found that the incorporation of 0.1-10 wt. % of polyamido-amine epichlorohydrin (PAE) into an aramid-based paper including at least 90 wt. % of aramid material calculated on the weight of the paper not including the PAE, the aramid material including at least one of aramid shortcut and aramid fibrid, the paper including at most 40 wt. % aramid pulp, leads to a surprising improvement of the z-strength and the tear strength of the paper.
Aramid-based paper comprising at least 90 wt. % of aramid material, calculated on dry paper components not including the PAE, the aramid material comprising at least one of aramid shortcut and aramid fibrid, the paper comprising at most 40 wt. % aramid pulp, calculated on the total amount of aramid material, wherein the paper comprises 0.1-10 wt. % of polyamido-amine epichlorohydrin (PAE).
Use of 0.1-10 wt. % of polyamido-amine epichlorohydrin (PAE) to improve the z-strength of an aramid-based paper comprising at least 90 wt. % of aramid material, calculated on dry paper components not including the PAE, the aramid material comprising at least one of aramid shortcut and aramid fibrid, the paper comprising at most 40 wt. % aramid pulp, calculated on the total amount of aramid material.
