Meta-aramid fibrid possesses an excellent binding and adhesive properties with the aramid short fibers, yielding high mechanical properties of the aramid paper. The effects of hot-pressing temperature on the mechanical property of meta-aramid paper are mainly discussed. Experimental results indicate that the mechanical property of aramid paper increases first and then decreases with the increase of hot-pressing temperature. The fundamental cause of this phenomenon is elucidated, and the aramid paper reaches its maximal mechanical property when the hot pressing temperature is 300°C.
