Failure mechanism of PC armor plates with PMMA sacrificial layer subjected to impact

Polycarbonate is one of the important transparent polymers which due to its high ductility can undergo large defonnation before failure providing high impact resistance. A large amount of energy on impact is transfonned into heat energy and intemal energy. Therefore to have a deep understanding of p...

description Polycarbonate is one of the important transparent polymers which due to its high ductility can undergo large defonnation before failure providing high impact resistance. A large amount of energy on impact is transfonned into heat energy and intemal energy. Therefore to have a deep understanding of polycarbonate regarding its ability to absorb energy, mode ofdefonnation, ballistic limitation, and projectile penetration mechanism is of significant importance
