    摘要: In one or more embodiments, one or more systems, methods, and/or processes may place a first outer layer, a core layer, and a second outer layer in a mold; and may heat the mold to at least thirty degrees Celsius above a glass transition temperature (Tg) for a period of time. In one or more embodiments, the polycarbonate fibers may be between eight and ten deniers per filament. In one or more embodiments, the Tg may be no more than 105 degrees Celsius. In one or more embodiments, the one or more systems, methods, and/or processes may further allow the first outer layer, the core layer, and the second outer layer to cool below the Tg, after the period of time. For example, after the layers cool, a shear modulus of the core layer may be in a range of 0.9868 megapounds per square inch (msi) to 2.2730 msi.
