The global most powerful information hub of high performance & advanced materials, innovative technologies

In September 2019, the US Army Research Laboratory stated that it is preparing a new material for body armor through a new technology that combines ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene with silica nanoparticles. This new material has higher strength and is Ideal material to absorb bullets and other shell impacts. In November 2019, U.S. officials stated that the U.S. Special Forces are currently testing a light combat armor. It is one of the results of the previous "Tactical Assault Light Operation Suit (TALOS)".
