    Composites/Polymers (Kevlar?) for defence application

    Hi all, I am currently searching for a composite/poylmer in the form of a cylidrical/cone geometry (~60mm diam, L~200mm) that can withstand an axial (longitudinal) pressure of up to 550MPa with little deformation over a time period of approx. 5ms. Good ol' Matweb provides stats of Kevlar with...

    Polymers under hydrostatic loading

    Hi, Can someone please provide some insight into the behaviour of polymers (eg ABS, Nylon, Delrin) subject to very high pressures (~550MPa), while in a controlled volume (~60mm diameter x ~150mm long. Obviously there is some compression, but what happens next? I would imagine that in some more...
