Nomex, another aromatic polyamide (compare aramid), is prepared by polymerization of 1,3-benzenediamine and the diacid chloride of 1,3-benzenedicarboxylic acid. The physical properties of the polymer make it suitable for high-strength, high-temperature applications such as parachute cords and jet aircraft tires. Draw a structural formula for the repeating unit of Nomex. H,N. NH2 CI polymerization Nomex 1,3-Benzenediamine 1,3-Benzene- dicarbonyl chloride
