Abstract: A method of manufacturing a penetration-resistant article that includes a textile fabric made from aramid fibers finished with finish solids. The finish solids include a carbonic acid polyester. The penetration-resistant article can be a fragment protection mat, a bullet-proof vest, a flak jacket, a stab-resistant vest, or a combination thereof.

Abstract: A textile fabric made from aramid fibers finished with a finishing agent. The finishing agent includes a carbonic acid polyester. The textile fabric can be incorporated into a penetration-resistant article. The penetration-resistant article can be a fragment protection mat, a bullet-proof vest, a flak jacket, a stab-resistant vest, or a combination thereof.

Abstract: An antiballistic article comprising a plurality of fabric layers of fibers with a strength of at least 1100 MPa according to ASTM D-885 is proposed, whereby there are at least two groups of areas with different textile densities within at least one fabric layer. Areas of a first group have a textile density of 8% to 31% according to Walz and areas of a second group have a textile density of 32% to 80% according to Walz.

Abstract: Penetration-resistant textile fabrics and articles that include the fabrics. The penetration-resistant textile fabrics have improved fragment protection and improved stab resistance efficiency at the same ballistic protection. The advantageous combination of characteristics of the penetration-resistant textile fabrics correspondingly transfers to articles that include the penetration-resistant textile fabrics.

Abstract: The invention relates to a fabric having both stab resistant and anti-ballistic properties. The fabric is made of yarn of a weight greater than about 500 dtex, and the fabric has a minimum shrinkage factor of at least about 1% achieved through a densification treatment. The invention further relates to a method of producing a such a fabric having the steps of agitating a fabric made of a yarn of a weight greater than about 500 dtex, substantially removing a spin finish from the fabric before, during or after the agitating step, and drying the fabric.

Abstract: A penetration-obstructing article comprising a multiplicity of fabric layers of fibers having elongation at break of less than 8%, measured according to EN 12562, wherein there are at least two groups of fibers in at least one single fabric layer, wherein the regions of a first group have a first fabric density DG1 according to Walz of from 8% to 80% and wherein the regions of a second group have a second fabric density according to Walz of from 8% to 80% and wherein the difference between DG1 and DG2 is at least 3%.
