Abstract: Treating Kevlar fabric with silica nanoparticles is known to augment its mechanical properties, especially under shear deformation. Silica nanoparticle-treated Kevlar (SNK) fabric could therefore display improved ballistic performance. In this study, the ballistic performance of… read more here.
