“…When the inter-yarns friction and the puncture are higher and stab resistance of fabric is more outstanding. Therefore, the study of inter-yarns frictional properties of STFs-treated materials is a valid method to evaluate the stab resistance properties of stab-resistant fabric [30].…”

In this paper, the shear-thickening fluids(STFs) are prepared by 0.5 µm and 12 nm silica particles. The STFs rheological properties and the performance of stab resistance are studied. SiO2 particles with two sizes (12 nm and 0.5 µm) are mixed at different weight ratios to form shear thickening fluids and its rheological behaviors are tested. Next, the quasi-static spike and knife stab resistances, dynamic impact strength, and yarn pull-out of shear thickening fluid-impregnated Kevlar fabrics are tested. The investigation showed that the micro- and nano-sized particles of silica are present in the compound shear thickening fluid, and the rheological behavior was positively improved. Regardless of whether shear thickening fluid is composed of mono-sized or binary particle-sized SiO2 particles, the presence of shear thickening fluids can significantly strengthen Kevlar fabrics in terms of the quasi-static spike and knife stab resistances, dynamic impact strength, and promote the friction force of inter-yarn. In particular, shear thickening fluid-impregnated Kevlar fabrics have better performances when being composed of 12 nm and 0.5 µm SiO2 particles at ratios of 2:1, 1:1, and 1:2 than when being made of only micro-sized or nano-sized particles.

“…As aramid fiber performance shows a light weight, satisfactory abrasion, high melt point, flexural strength, and fatigue resistance, 96 the fabrics have become the most popular reinforcements for STFCs. [97][98][99][100] Nevertheless, these fibers also have some shortcomings, such as low compressive strength, large moisture absorbency, and difficulties in processing.…”

Fabrics with proper mechanical properties and high structural designability are frequently selected as the reinforcement of flexible composites. Shear thickening materials (STMs), including shear thickening fluid and shear thickening gel, are dense colloidal suspensions exhibiting an abrupt increase in viscosity with increasing shear rate. Shear thickening fabric composites (STFCs) which combined STM with fabrics, have been increasingly in demand for impact protective applications due to their tremendous potential. Herein, the characteristics of STM and the effects of fabric reinforcement on STFC impact behaviors are discussed for optimizing their properties and structures. Subsequently, the impact behaviors of STFCs obtained by multiple testing approaches with different impact threats are reviewed systematically. Furthermore, a comprehensive summary of the existing literature on stab, drop-weight, split Hopkinson pressure bar, and ballistic impact protective mechanisms of STFCs is presented. It is found that based on the proper selection of STM types, thorough mechanistic explanations of STFC impact behaviors are instructive and could facilitate the development of wearable protective equipment. The purpose of this critical review is to provide a framework for comparison of the effective impact resistances of STFCs across many applications and to discuss issues for future research.

“…1, a schematic diagram of shear deformation of flexible fabric, the yarn pull-out test is the most extensive method to evaluate the adhesive slip and friction properties of fabric yarns. [29][30][31][32] There are many ways to test for anti-ballistic performance including tensile tests, compression tests, and shearing tests. These tests can be carried out on an Instron universal testing machine (model 3382).…”

In studies of ballistic impact, the materials used in body armor must have high hardness, light weight, fatigue resistance, corrosion resistance, and other high performance characteristics. Aramid fibers are widely used in anti-ballistic materials. To facilitate the further development of aramid materials, this study reviews aramid research in recent years and analyzes the main factors affecting, and new methods for optimizing, anti-ballistic performance, with the emphasis on bulletproof fabrics. This review provides suggestions for future research and use of aramid materials for anti-ballistic performance.
