Combing High-Modulus Fibers with a Novel Foaming Structure Applied to Protective Sandwich-Structured Composites: Manufacturing Techniques and Property Evaluations

This study proposes the composites with a sandwich structure that is primarily made by the multi-step foaming process. The staple material is polyurethane (PU) foam that is combined with carbon fibers, followed by a Kevlar woven fabric. The composites are evaluated in terms of puncture resistance, b...
