Journal ArticleDOI
Novel ballistic ramie fabric composite competing with Kevlar™ fabric in multilayered armor
Sergio Neves Monteiro,Thiago Lara Milanezi,Luiz Henrique L. Louro,Édio Pereira Lima,Fábio de Oliveira Braga,Alaelson Vieira Gomes,Jaroslaw Drelich +6 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a ramie-emoxy composite backing plate was used to capture the post-impact debris coming from fragmented front ceramic tile in a multilayered ballistic armor system.
Journal ArticleDOI
Promising Mechanical, Thermal, and Ballistic Properties of Novel Epoxy Composites Reinforced with Cyperus malaccensis Sedge Fiber.
Lucas de Mendonça Neuba,Raí Felipe Pereira Junio,Matheus Pereira Ribeiro,Andressa Teixeira Souza,Eduardo de Sousa Lima,Fabio da Costa Garcia Filho,André Ben-Hur da Silva Figueiredo,Fábio de Oliveira Braga,Afonso Rangel Garcez de Azevedo,Sergio Neves Monteiro +9 more
TL;DR: The present work evaluated for the first time the properties of novel epoxy composites incorporated with 10, 20, and 30 vol.% of CM sedge fibers, finding an increase in both stiffness and toughness characterized a reinforcement effect of the sedge fiber.
Journal ArticleDOI
Sugarcane bagasse waste in composites for multilayered armor
Sergio Neves Monteiro,Verônica Scarpini Candido,Fábio de Oliveira Braga,Lucas Tedesco Bolzan,Ricardo Pondé Weber,Jaroslaw Drelich +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the incorporation of bagasse waste into polymeric composites for ballistic resistant materials was investigated in a multilayered armors with either raw bagasse or extracted bagasse fibers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Promising curaua fiber‐reinforced polyester composite for high‐impact ballistic multilayered armor
TL;DR: In this paper, a polyester matrix composites reinforced with 10 to 30 vol% of curaua fibers, despite having much lower strength and stiffness than aramid fabric, displayed similar trauma indentation in a standard clay witness simulating the human body.
Journal ArticleDOI
High energy ballistic and fracture comparison between multilayered armor systems using non-woven curaua fabric composites and aramid laminates
Fábio de Oliveira Braga,Fábio de Oliveira Braga,Lucas Tedesco Bolzan,Fernanda Santos da Luz,Pedro Henrique Lameirão Machado Lopes,Édio Pereira Lima,Sergio Neves Monteiro,Sergio Neves Monteiro +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, a comparison to a MAS using aramid (Kevlar™) fabric laminates was made, and the results showed that the curaua non-woven fabric composites are suitable to the high ballistic applications, and are promising substitutes for aramidal fabric lamination.
