Abstract

A ballistic protection composite panel is disclosed having multiple layers of fabric woven from heat stable yarns with high tenacity and impregnated by heat meltable matrix resin. The layers are molded together to form a single panel capable of withstanding high powered rifle bullets. The yarns may be selected from polyamid (poly(p-phenylene terephthalamide)) yarns, polybenzoxazole yarns or polybenzothiazole yarns. The matrix resin may consist of thermoplastic polyethylene. The tenacity is greater than 3550 MPa (28.0 grams per denier).
