Abstract
Due to its chemical and mechanical properties, polyurea gains more and more interest in military applications. In this study, polyurea and carbon nanotubes were processed as coating polymer composites for ballistic plates and/or packages, in order to increase their protection potential, meanwhile maintaining an appropriate weight and an economic accessibility. In this respect, the composite material was layered on various commercially-available materials and various thicknesses and further, the performances of the products obtained were tested in order to assess their behavior against traumas produced by shockwave, blunt, shooting and fragment.
Keywords: attenuation; blunt trauma; shooting trauma; ballistic package
