PBO stands for (polybenzoxazole). PBO is the next generation super fibre, offering the highest strength and modulus of any synthetic fibre on the market.
In fact PBO's strength and modulus are almost double that of Kevlar® (p-Aramid fibre). PBO is well known for 8 years as a fibre rigging core material and has proven its longevity.
PBO(his trademark is Zylon) is a synthetic fiber developed by Toyobo Co.,Ltd.(“Toyobo”), a company headquartered in Osaka, Japan. Zylon—the strongest man-made fiber in the world—has high tensile strength, thermal stability and flame resistance as compared to organic fibers. Zylon is a component part of at least fifty diverse end-products including: sporting goods, such as tennis tickets and golf clubs; high tension rope; protective gear, such as firefighter garments, racing suits, racing helmets, cut-resistant gloves and bullet-resistant vests; and cable and aerospace mechanisms.
