Gun polyamide fireproof-main body

Synthetic polyamides are commonly used in textiles, automotive industry, carpets, kitchen utensils and sportswear due to their high durability and strength. The transportation manufacturing industry is the major consumer, accounting for 35% of polyamide (PA) consumption.
Polyamides break down into three different families — aliphatic, semi-aromatic and aromatic polyamides, also known as aramids. Nylons are aliphatic polyamides. The strong, heat-resistant fiber known as Kevlar is an example of an aramid.
Polyamides are naturally occurring; however, we can obtain them artificially as well. Natural polyamides are proteins, such as wool and silk, while artificial are nylons, aramids, and sodium poly-aspartate.
