Abstract

Structure stratifiée multicouche particulièrement utile en tant que gilet pare-balles souple, comprenant des couches de tissu d'aramide, de feuille thermoplastique ou de tissu de polyoléfine liées ensemble au moyen d'un adhésif polyoléfinique. L'empilement de couches est consolidé par application de chaleur et de pression pour former un ensemble de protection contre les traumatismes qui est léger et réduit les traumatismes, conformément aux exigences des normes indiennes en matière de gilets pare-balles.
