IMPACT

Impact resistance is an important characteristic when it comes to safety as it describes the ability of a material to withstand intense forces / shocks in a short period. This can become of importance when it comes to workers wear, bullet proof products, tires and other applications where functionality may not be disrupted by external forces or punctures.

Amongst other products, Swicofil offers impact resistance yarn and fibers as follows:
 

• UHMWPE
   
• para-Aramide
  like Kevlar or Twaron
   
• Liquid Crystal Polymer LCP
  like Vectran

and more to be found in our product programme.
