"Clothes woven with electrically conducting threads are a significant step closer with the creation of super-tough carbon nanotube fibres up to 100 metres long. They can absorb more energy without breaking than any natural or synthetic organic fibre known."
"Materials made from such threads could be used to make bullet-proof vests as light as a T-shirt." Awesome Library does not endorse these products but provides them as examples. 04-06
- Bulletproof Fatigues (Discover.com)
"Vests made of multiple layers of Kevlar fabric are great at stopping bullets, but the material is too heavy, hot, and inflexible to be worn over arms and legs. So the Army Research Laboratory, in collaboration with the University of Delaware, is developing lightweight armor that could shield the whole body." Awesome Library does not endorse these products but provides them as examples. 04-06
- Bulletproof Vests Flawed (MSNBC News)
" 'The safety and well-being of all the officers who wear our body armor is of primary importance to Second Chance, and we strongly encourage all officers to replace ballistic vests that contain Zylon as quickly as possible,' he said." 6-05
