This system is comprised of pre-stressed high performance fibres, sandwiched and glued within layers of pre-compressed wood strands.
The development of high performance fibres has been the most important driver for advancements in ballistic protection, the most popular fibre types used for this purpose being the para-aramid fibres and ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene.
This result suggests that the proportion of sp3 carbon decreases as the amorphous structure is converted into a crystalline structure during the carbonization treatment, leading to the high performance fibres.
In this context, an alternative to carbon-steel tensile armour wires is proposed recently by the authors (Gautam et al., 2016), comprising of hexagonally packed polymer composite rods with uni-directional fibres and an over-braided (i.e. bi-axial braid with high performance fibres) sleeve.
While plenty of work has been published on ballistic properties of high performance fibres such as ultra high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) and aramid, and their composites, literature on the ballistic impact potential of natural fibre composites is almost non-existent.
Understanding the composite nature of silk and its supra-molecular organisation will open avenues in the production of high performance fibres based on artificially spun silk material.
