From page 67...
... . These material systems have recently become a focus of active research because of their potential for being lighter weight than other metal alloys while exhibiting desirable combinations of properties such as high strength, high fracture toughness, and corrosion resistance.
From page 68...
... For example, they form the basis for a host of textile fibers and composite materials. Some are able to support dynamically imposed stresses and have become important for growing uses in ballistic protection systems, where they can significantly improve mass efficiencies (although often at the expense of a reduced volumetric efficiency)


This material may be derived from roughly machine-read images, and so is provided only to facilitate research.
