Abstract | ||||
ABSTRACT In this study, the ballistic properties of the hybrid armor samples that have different number of layers of para-aramid material Kevlar 129, polyethylene material SB21 and woven material E-glass, produced by hand lay-up and hand-pressing with using epoxy resin matrix against 9 mm bullet, were investigated experimentally. In the tests the protection levels are applied per NIJ 0101.04 standards (National Institute of Justice (NIJ) Level III A, the approved U.S.A. Ballistic Standard). Results show that the area of the delamination is important to quantify the ballistic properties. | ||||
