Body armor is mainly composed of a coat cover, a bulletproof layer, a buffer layer, and a bulletproof insert plate.
The coat cover is generally made of chemical fiber fabric or wool cotton fabric, which plays a role in protecting the bulletproof layer and making the appearance beautiful. Some have pockets on the hoods to carry ammunition and other supplies. Bulletproof layers are usually made of metal, aramid fibers (Kevlar fibers), high-strength high-modulus polyethylene, polyimide fibers (PI fibers), and other materials alone or in combination to bounce or embed penetrating bullets or explosive fragments.
The cushioning layer is used to dissipate impact kinetic energy and reduce non-penetrating damage, and is usually made of closed-cell knitted composite fabrics, flexible polyurethane foam, and other materials.
Bulletproof insert plate is a kind of insert plate that enhances the protection ability of the bulletproof layer, which is mainly used to protect the penetration of rifle direct projectiles and high-speed small fragments.
