WHY CERAMIC CAN BE USED AS BULLETPROOF MATERIAL | Xinxingarmy.com
The main reason why ceramics are used as bulletproof materials is its high hardness, and the weight is much lighter than steel under the same bulletproof effect. For people who often wear bulletproof vest , weight is an important consideration. Another advantage of ceramic materials relative to steel, Ceramic bulletproof plate can absorb the energy of bullet impacts, and the steel bullet-proof plate will rebound the bullet when the bullet hits, which may cause harm to people around you. THREE DIFFERENT BULLETPROOF CERAMIC MATERIALS Since the 21st century, bulletproof ceramics have developed rapidly and there are many types, including alumina, silicon carbide, boron carbide, silicon nitride, titanium boride, etc., among which alumina ceramics (Al2O3), silicon carbide ceramics (SiC), carbide Boron ceramics (B4C) are the most widely used. Alumina ceramics (Al2O3) has the highest density, but its hardness is relatively low, processing threshold is low, a...
