PBO Filament

PBO, which stands for Poly-p-phenylene benzobisoxazole, is a composite material reinforcement developed in the United States in the 1980s for the advancement of the aerospace industry. It is one of the most promising members of the polyamide family containing heterocyclic aromatics and is often referred to as the "super fiber of the 21st century."
