Alumina and low density polyethylene composite for ballistics applications

The efficiency of alumina and low-density polyethylene (LDPE) composites in ballistic applications was investigated. Different concentrations of alumina were studied, 70, 75, 80, 85, 90 wt.%. The ballistic tests were carried out at subsonic speed using a compressed air system and projectile 0.22. In...
