New nanomaterial is stopping bullets and other blasts better than kevlar. And it looks like nano-scale knitting or cushion.




The problem with the bulletproof and protective materials is that they are not let the air go through them. That thing makes them uncomfortable if they are used in clothes. When the creators of the materials are making the new type of protection they must realize that all protective materials are not suitable in all places. The worker in the building site needs a different type of protection against the threats than some military operators. 

New nanomaterial is stopping bullets and other blasts better than kevlar. And it has a nano-scale knit or cushion-looking structure. And that 3D structure ties pull impact energy more effectively than simple kevlar structure. The material that is used in this armor is free. In the test, the miniature particles shot to material, that is thinner than a human hair. And in bulletproof vests, if multiple layers of that material. 

It can create by using kevlar, but also metal or carbon fibers can use in this material. The key element is the 3D structure that pulls the impact energy. The thing that will make the limit for that system is the 3D printing technology. 





The same type of armor with carbon fiber or metal structure can use in space and aviation technology. 


This new type of armor can make by using kevlar but it can also create by using hybrid material fibers where kevlar is connected with the titanium fibers and cover with a layer, that resists heat. In those cases, the armor is put between the carbon fiber or titanium plates. That kind of armor is suitable for spacecraft and helicopters. 

The new bulletproof material can offer protection against high-speed bullets. The structure of the material is visible in the image above this text. Those images are from ScitechDaily.com. The effect of this material bases small cushion where the 3D cubic structure is offering better protection against the bullet than 2D kevlar net. 

In bullet-proof vests can be the hybrid material, where the 2D kevlar and this 3D "cushion material" are alternating. The best solution would be covering those cushions with a solid plate that offers protection also against pressure impacts.

That structure will push against those cushions and makes energy to distribute to the larger area. And that solid- but holed material is also offering protection against consumption. The body armor that is lightweight and flexible can be used in bulletproof vests. But it can also hide in normal-looking clothes.

Plasmonic waves can make new waves in quantum technology.

"LSU researchers have made a significant discovery related to the fundamental properties and behavior of plasmonic waves, which can lead ot the development of more sensitive and robust quantum technologies. Credit: LSU" (ScitechDaily, Plasmonics Breakthrough Unleashes New Era of Quantum Technologies) Plasmonic waves in the quantum gas are the next-generation tools. The plasmonic wave is quite similar to radio waves. Or, rather say it, a combination of acoustic waves and electromagnetic waves. Quantum gas is an atom group. In those atom groups, temperature and pressure are extremely low.  The distance of atoms is long. And when an electromagnetic system can pump energy to those atoms. But the thing in quantum gas is that the atoms also make physical movements like soundwaves. It's possible. To create quantum gas using monoatomic ions like ionized noble gas. In those systems, positive (or negative) atoms push each other away.  When the box is filled with quantum gas and som

Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.

"Researchers have created a novel metamaterial that can dynamically tune its shape and properties in real-time, offering unprecedented adaptability for applications in robotics and smart materials. This development bridges the gap between current materials and the adaptability seen in nature, paving the way for the future of adaptive technologies. Credit: UNIST" (ScitechDaily, Metamaterial Magic: Scientists Develop New Material That Can Dynamically Tune Its Shape and Mechanical Properties in Real-Time) Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.  An electro-optical activator can also be an IR state, which means. The metamorphosis in the material can thermally activate.  AI is the ultimate tool for metamaterial research. Metamaterials are nanotechnical- or quantum technical tools that can change their properties, like reflection or state from solid to liquid when the electric or optical effect hits that material. The metamaterial can cru
