Ballistic Test of Multilayered Armor with Intermediate Epoxy Composite Reinforced with Jute Fabric [PDF]
Multilayered armors with a front ceramic followed by aramid fabric (Kevlar™) are currently used against high velocity ammunition. In these armors, a front ceramic layer that shatters and spalls the bullet is followed by an intermediate layer, usually ...

Investigating the effects of alumina nanoparticles on the impact resistance of polycarbonate nano-composites [PDF]
In this project, two types of treated and untreated alumina nanoparticles with different weight percentages (wt%) of 0.5, 1 and 3% were mixed with polycarbonate matrix; then, the impact ballistic properties of the nano-composite targets made from them ...
