  • HIGH DENSITY UNIDIRECTIONAL FABRIC FOR SOFT BALLISTICS APPLICATIONS
    Publication number: 20140360347
    Abstract: A ballistic article is comprised of high density fibers, where the linear mass density of the fibers is greater than 2000 dtex as measured by ASTM D1907 and the fibers in each layer have a total areal density greater than 100 g/m2. In one example, the ballistic article has two sheets comprising para-aramid fibers in a styrene and isoprene block copolymer matrix material.

  • Method for processing a composite
    Patent number: 7964050
    Abstract: A method for processing a composite includes consolidating a section of a continuous length of a first feedstock together with a section of a continuous length of a second feedstock to form a consolidated section. The first feedstock is made of a first composite layer that is releasably bonded to a first release layer, and the second feedstock is made of a second composite layer that is releasably bonded to a second release layer. The first release layer is then separated from the consolidated section and from a portion of the first composite layer a distance beyond an edge of the consolidated section. The first composite layer is then cut within the distance beyond the edge to release the consolidated section from the remaining continuous length of the first feedstock.
