The material’s strength comes from its unique structure, where molecules stick together to resist damage and distribute momentum across multiple points.
When tested alongside Ultem fibers, a material similar to Kevlar, the new polymer significantly increased Ultem’s strength and stiffness. Researchers believe this could lead to lighter, stronger body armor and ballistic fabrics.
The team is still investigating the material’s properties, but its potential looks promising.
