Carbon nanotubes rebound bullets
March 1st, 2008
Most bulletproof vests work by spreading the force of the missile, blunting its impact. Those wearing such protective gear can sustain severe bruising or blunt-force trauma to internal organs. Australian engineers at the Centre for Advanced Materials Technology at the University of Sydney hope to change this dynamic with a carbon nanotube (CNT) material that […]
