Ballistic comparison between epoxy-ramie and epoxy-aramid composites in Multilayered Armor Systems

The ballistic protection against high-energy projectiles, such as the 7.62 mm, is more efficiently performed by means of multilayered armor systems (MAS). A MAS might be composed of a ceramic front, followed by a fiber/fabric composite as intermediate layer, and a ductile metal back layer. In a prev...
