fibra arammidica
Explanation:
cercando sui monolingue online si trova che "aramid fiber" è detto anche "polyaramid". Cercando "aramid fiber" su Eurodicautomm si trova "fibra arammidica".
Forse, ma è da verificare, si dice anche "aramidica" con una "m".

polyaramid


Explanation:
Probably it is the same in Italian, though I could not find it in google in this language.

Here's what the chemical industry says about it:
Polyaramids are a new class of high-performance polymer of which Kevlar
is the best-known example.

Hope this helps a bit!

polyaramid -poliaramidica/poliarammidica


Explanation:
Dall'Enc. Britannica:

aramid:

from industrial polymers, major
Aramids
Following the success of nylons, aramids (aromatic nylons) were prepared by condensation of a diamine and terephthalic acid, a carboxylic acid that contains a hexagonal benzene ring in its molecules. The close packing of the aromatic polymer chains produced a strong, tough, stiff, high-melting fibre for radial tires, heat- or flame-resistant fabrics, bulletproof clothing, and fibre-reinforced composite materials. DuPont began to produce Nomex (its trademark for poly-meta-phenylene isophthalamide) in 1961 and Kevlar (the trademarked name of poly-para-phenylene terephthalamide) in 1971. These two compounds are distinguished by the structure of their polymer chains, Kevlar containing para-oriented phenyl rings and Nomex containing meta-oriented rings: ...ecc

Sorry, I copied the same text twice!
The following text refers to polyaramid:

\"A pneumatic tire is reinforced by layers of relatively inextensible cords that hold the air pressure and restrict deformation and growth of the tire during use. To this end cord materials must have high stiffness, resistance to repeated flexing, high strength-to-weight ratio, and good adhesion to rubber. Tire cords have been made of cotton, rayon, nylon, polyester, and glass, but steel and \"polyaramid\" (an extremely hard and stiff synthetic fibre) are currently the dominant materials in use.
