This is achieved through Twaron's high
energy absorption, high tenacity, and high
modulus of elasticity, which permits rapid
dispersion of the deformation waves.
Synergistic effects also result from the
huge number of individual filaments.
Bullet resistant, lightweight, and comfortable
body armor made from Twaron is used throughout
the world today by the police (protection
against direct fire) and by military personnel
(mainly as protection against fragments
caused by explosives).
Teijin Twaron's extensive research programs
and continuous product development ensure
that only the very best goes into our products.
Fiber development is being pursued as energetically
as ever.
