Lightweight Ballistic with Additional Stab Protection Made of Thermally Sprayed Ceramic and Cermet Coatings on Aramide Fabrics

International Journal of Applied Ceramic Technology, 2006
Ceramic and cermet coatings on fiber fabrics used in lightweight protection should enhance their performance in stab protection. Based on thermal spray technologies a coating process for hard material layers even on temperature‐sensitive fiber substrates has been developed, so that the coated fabrics retain their flexibility.
