Abstract: A ballistic fiber composition may include a fabric that may be comprised of polyamide fibers, an adhesive polymer coating the fabric, and a carbonaceous material and a ceramic filler embedded in the adhesive polymer coating. A method of producing a ballistic protective article may include mixing a carbonaceous material and a ceramic filler into an adhesive to create a mixture, and then coating a polyamide fabric with the mixture. A ballistic protective article may include an aromatic polyamide fabric that is coated with an elastomeric adhesive polymer coating, with calcium carbonate and a carbonaceous material embedded in the elastomeric adhesive polymer coating. The carbonaceous material may include at least one material selected from graphene, carbon nanofiber, and carbon nanotubes.
