BALLISTIC PROTECTION MATERIALS

open access: yesTextile and Garment Magazine
Ballistic vests are composed of particular high performance clothing. They could be reinforced by one or two armor panels according to the protection level and are designed to resist to attacks intended to upper parts of the body to save lives of its wearers.

Bridged h‐BN Nanosheets Coatings: Simultaneous Shielding Atomic‐Oxygen Irradiation and Achieving Superior Friction Performance

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 50, 7 September 2026.
ABSTRACT To confront extreme space environments, a combination of inorganic and organic coatings can provide a pathway for offering highly durable radiation resistance and anti‐friction simultaneously. Herein, a strong interfacial 3D hydrogen‐bonding network is designed to create robust hexagonal boron nitride (h‐BN) based polymer coatings with ...

Ballistic composites – protecting the protectors

open access: yesReinforced Plastics, 2017
It seems scarcely credible that thin polymer fibers, bound together in resin, can stop projectiles ranging from a hand-gun bullet to a high-power rifle round, but they can and have done so, saving many lives in the process. Composite body armor protects a wide range of civilians from security guards to police officers and from bailiffs to VIPs.

Influence of Strain Rate and Temperature on the Mechanical Behaviour of Armour Steels

open access: yesce/papers, Volume 9, Issue 2-3, Page 341-346, September 2026.
Abstract Armour steels are high‐strength alloys widely used in vehicles and protective structures due to their outstanding ballistic resistance. This work investigates the tensile behaviour of different Armox steels under the combined effects of high strain rate and elevated temperature.
