Abstract

An armor composite system comprises a plurality of ceramic elements having a strike face and a non-strike face connected by lateral sides, and a polymeric body wrap coupled to the non-strike face. Ballistic textiles, ceramics, and laminated composites are among the leading materials used in modem body armor designs, and nano-particle and natural fiber filled composites are candidate materials for new-generation armor systems. Properties and ballistic resistance mechanisms of such materials have been extensively investigated, however, polymeric improvements have had limited scope and ceramic/polymer structured architectures have not been explored. The combination of these materials in an armor composite system with the high impact properties of ceramics and the extreme viscoelastic properties of polymers, would out-perform any of today's current lightweight rigidized polymeric systems, while maintaining superior lightweight ballistic and fragmentation performance capabilities as compared to the latest state-of-the-art lightweight ceramic glass and/or textile resin composite systems.
