This review highlights advancements in aramid fiber-reinforced plastics, addressing manufacturing challenges and performance improvements in aerospace applications.
This review examines the application of aramid fiber-reinforced plastics (AFRPs) in the aerospace industry, highlighting their significance in enhancing aircraft performance. Aramid fibers, such as Kevlar® and Twaron®, have emerged as key materials due to their exceptional tensile strength, low density, and thermal stability. However, challenges persist in manufacturing, durability, and multifunctionality. This paper evaluates the latest advancements in AFRP, focusing on how molecular structure, interfacial engineering, and manufacturing innovations influence performance. It addresses questions on improving adhesion, efficient manufacturing methods, enhancing durability under extreme conditions, and developing multifunctional AFRP. By analyzing breakthroughs from 2020 to 2025 and proposing targeted solutions, this review aims to help AFRP meet the demands of future aerospace systems.
