Abstract:
The present disclosure relates to a ballistic resistant composite 20 including a bimodal binder, the composite formable in a manner in which it is exposed to low pressure for a short duration of time and at a controlled temperature. More particularly, the bimodal binder of composite 20 allows the composite to be formed with a flat-bed laminator, for example, which may be less expensive than other processing methods, such as a steel belt press.
Abstract:
Composite materials combining both high and low strength fibrous materials. More particularly, composite materials that are useful as lightweight vest covers for tactical vests and that are suitable for the formation of alternatives to conventional Modular Lightweight Load-carrying Equipment (MOLLE).
