AN ABRASION RESISTANT MATERIAL AND METHOD OF CONSTRUCTION

摘要

An abrasion resistant material for use in the fabrication of protective garments that has at least two layers, a first layer and a second layer, wherein the first layer is the layer that is exposed to and engages with the abrasive surface, such as a road surface. The second layer comprises of substantially high tensile and burst strength so as to act as a protective layer which covers or is at least located closest to the skin of the wearer. The first layer has a plurality of abrasion resistant members dispersed throughout the first layer that act to absorb the bulk of any abrasion force and reduce the exposure and degradation of the second layer
