Evaluating Aramid Fabrics in Protective Clothing
This question asks us to assess two statements about Aramid fabrics and their use in protective clothing.
Analyzing Assertion (A)
Assertion (A) states that Aramid fabrics are used extensively in protective clothing. This is correct. Materials like Kevlar and Nomex, which are types of Aramid fibres, are widely used because of their excellent properties for applications such as bulletproof vests, firefighter suits, and heat-resistant gloves.
Analyzing Reason (R)
Reason (R) claims that Aramid fibres exhibit high strength and high flammability. While Aramid fibres are known for their high strength, they are also known for their excellent resistance to flame and heat. Therefore, the statement that they have "high flammability" is incorrect. Their low flammability is actually a key reason for their use in protective gear.
Conclusion
Since Assertion (A) is correct and Reason (R) is incorrect, the most appropriate answer is that (A) is correct but (R) is not correct.
