Abstract

A fiber product comprising one or more fibers of aromatic polyamide polymer having a microscopic structure of an extended molecular chain, free of crystal defect layers perpendicular to the fiber axis, a high inherent viscosity of at least 3.0 [dl/g], and a high tensile strength of at least 15 g/d, said inherent viscosity being determined at 30.degree. C. using a concentration of 0.5 grams of said polymer in 100 ml of concentration sulfuric acid.
