IMPACT RESISTANT COMPOSITES

摘要

Provided are impact resistant composites with excellent impact resistance as well as having excellent heat resistance and weather resistance. The impact resistant composites are composites that comprise at least one layer of cotton fabric and an elastomeric substance that is unified with the cotton fabric. The cotton fabric is formed from high strength fibers with a rupture strength of at least 10 cN/dtex, an equilibrium moisture content of 1% or less in a 20°C × 65% RH environment, a melting point of at least 200°C, and a single fiber size of at least 1.5 dtex. The elastomeric substance comprises at least a hydrogenated styrene-based thermoplastic elastomer.
