UHMWPE has good impact resistance and large specific energy absorption, it is usually applied in the field of safety defense. In safety application, it can be made into protective fabrics, helmets, materials, etc. It is used to make, protection covers, stab resistant clothing, shields, etc.
When used as a protection vest, UHMWPE is mainly used to manufacture UD cloth (a composite material composed of UHMWPE and resin based materials, with no interlacing of fibers in and between layers), which is the key layer of soft vest. Most of the materials now used in protection vest are compounded with other high-performance fibers as the interlayer of . In addition, UHMWPE can also be bonded to ceramic or metal panels as a backing for hard protection panels.
(1)Flexible and Lightweight; Strength-to-weight ratio is about 40% higher than Aramid; The highest tenacity and lowest density Ballistic material;
(2)Environmental Properties Excellent resistance to water, moisture, corrosion, UV light and microorganisms; Impact absorption.
(3)Ballistic Performance UHMWPE UD fabric can promptly distribute energy of bullet on a large area so as to reduce depth of concavity of Ballistic materials so that nonpenetration injury can be therefore reduced. Besides, this fabric can absorb bullet’s shock and block smashed bullet pieces to prevent secondary injury. It is therefore the advanced ideal soft Ballistic composite material. Provides the wearer with excellent ballistic and trauma performance in a lightweight body armor solution; Block smashed fragments to prevent secondary injury.
