Dyneema Ballistic Material

Starting with dyneema fiber as the base the fibers are layered in a crisscross pattern at 0 and 90 degrees allowing more even and rapid distribution of energy.

Dyneema ballistic material. Available as both hard and soft ballistic material. The strength and versatility of dyneema make it ideal for a wide range of ballistic armor solutions including soft armor hard armor helmets and frag knits. This comes in two forms. Ultra high molecular weight polyethylene uhmwpe uhmw is a subset of the thermoplastic polyethylene also known as high modulus polyethylene hmpe it has extremely long chains with a molecular mass usually between 3 5 and 7 5 million amu.

Testing of any new design is recommended for those companies or individuals trying to manufacturer bullet resistant items using kevlar or spectra dyneema fabrics. Dyneema offers an unmatched strength to weight ratio is 15x stronger than steel. Dyneema 50 x63 armor panels are the strongest lightest composite ballistic material made today. The helmets created with hard ballistic resistance from dyneema are as strong as previous helmets made with other materials but with half the weight.

Dyneema isn t a woven fabric like most ballistic materials but is instead a thin flexible ballistic composite made from two layers of unidirectional fibers held in place by flexible resins. Used as a filament reinforcement denim with dyneema creates much stronger and more durable jeans. Dyneema ud is a composite unidirectional laminate that offers excellent energy absorption and enhanced protection all in a lightweight solution. Dyneema composite fabric formerly cuben fiber is a patented high end laminate fabric constructed from non woven composites utilizing space age dsm dyneema fibers.

Dyneema ud material is a composite unidirectional ud laminate that offers excellent energy absorption and enhanced protection in a lightweight solution. Soft armor soft armor made with dyneema is up to 35 lighter than aramid materials without compromising on protection. Our invention of an ultra strong ultra light material has inspired industries to transform the performance of countless products and applications. The dyneema brand is at the leading edge of the materials innovation curve.

As a filament yarn for reinforcement or with dyneema blended into the cotton. Denim with dyneema in addition to traditional woven fabric dyneema is also available as a denim.
