- Additional information
- The output reports the significance of using nanoadditives materials for improving ballistic performance of fibre composites. Modification of epoxy resin for composite materials using one and two dimensional nanoadditives improves ballistic performance of fibre composites. The developed materials have been used to demonstrate the improvement in ballistic performance of reinforced composites. The newly-developed materials are novel. The results are original and published for the first time. The work is coherent, peer reviewed and uses extensive experimental results to establish outcomes. The experimental methods are justified by using advanced instrumental analysis and scientifically-established methods for testing and analysis of the results.
