Investigations on Dynamic Puncture Behaviors of Integrated Composite Reinforced with Varying Fabrics

Article Preview

Abstract:

The dynamic puncture resistance of multi-layer integrated composite which was comprised of glass fabric reinforcement or Kevlar fabric reinforcement and nonwovens were discussed as related to recycled Kevlar fibers amount, number of layer and K-ply position for purpose of cost reduction and performance improvement. The result shows that, 20 wt% Kevlar fibers contained in nonwovens have the optimum puncture resistance. And the dynamic puncture force increases linearly with number of layers, and also improves proportionally as increasing number of K-ply. The resultant multi-layer composite is expected to be used as body armor interlayer and packaging materials.
