Just answering my own question: Is this be used for bullet proof vests? Heavier than carbon fiber and kevlar with lower tensile strength than both. So, no, no

Just answering my own question: Is this be used for bullet proof vests?
Heavier than carbon fiber and kevlar with lower tensile strength than both.
So, no, not unless it's much cheaper.
- potato3732842 11mo agoStuff like this gets used in welding blankets or clothing for people working around hot stuff or insulation on hot bits of machinery. It's supposed to be heat resistant, not strong. <insert meme about bullet proof vests not being fireproof here>
- xeonmc 11mo agoI have in mind other uses: how is the stiffness per mass compared to glass and carbon fibre, and mass manufacturability for small parts?
