Ballistic composites are high-performance fibers capable of absorbing shock and impact energy caused by explosions. They consist of layered structural composites with polymer matrix reinforced with glass, carbon and para-aramid fibers to provide enhanced strength and stiffness. These composites are commonly used as raw materials to manufacture vests, helmets, shields and body and vehicle armors. They exhibit various advantageous properties, such as resistance to heat and corrosion, high thermal conductivity and durability. As a result, they find extensive applications across various industries, such as defense, automotive, aviation and aerospace.
