Kevlar is synthesized from the Monomers p-Phenylenediamine (PPD) and Terephthaloyl Chloride (TCL).
Stephanie Kwolek and Herbert Blades created this special material in 1965 for the Dupont Company (which holds its patent) and since then it has been used in a various of applications.
It is an extremely strong material that derives its strength from its weave. It is a special way of weaving a liquid into a solid. This is called an ARAMID weave. It is woven like tiny spider webs.
