I'm going to guesstimate 45 layers of E-Glass for 5.56 and 308 FMJ. I'm surprised that the gorilla glue performed so well. Very informative, thank you.
would be nice to see a build of a standardized plate using these new level 4 protection material combination. also makes me wonder if there is something that can be done to stop those huge bulges on the inside of the plate, because like you said it yourself - you are not walking away from those blunt force injuries
BTW I found some researches about it. Not a lot of difference with vinylester resin as remember. Gonna search for epoxy modifiers against bullet. For impact strength they give twice Joules.

it works as Compound 18 if you old enough to know what is it. 🙂

it bulges so well that you can use it against RPGs as NERA armor like Chobham/Dorchester.
So what do you think is better and why: composite in front of UHWMPE or composite behind UHWMPE ?
Sorry but you mentioned talking about how the s glass would fail, did I miss it at the end?
Can you compare S-glass vs E-glass vs basalt composite?
basalt AFAIK is strong as E but tough as S

I waited to see S-glass against bullet and now I saw it but I didn't get what you said about it.
Are the tiles 1/2in or 3/4in?
@@Armor-Innovations they are 1/2 inch
How heavy is the plate?
@@RiotGearEpsilon one is 8lb 4oz and the other is a hefty 8lb 10oz.
