T-Link expands design and manufacturing processability for armor while providing better performance by weight
L&L Products meets a long-existing industry need with T-Link™, an advanced engineering thermoplastic adhesive hybrid resin that does not require refrigeration or special handling and – being highly customizable – can be easily and quickly consolidated into a composite structure. (Sponsored)
Being an advanced, versatile thermoplastic matrix resin, T-Link™ can be used to create lightweight composite structures that empower performance with processibility in a wide range of markets and potential applications, including armor.
T-Link™ yarn provides 12.6% better ballistics performance by weight compared to Detail Specification MIL-DTL-62474F defined aramid composites.
T-Link™ - Enabling lightweight and durability for armor applications:
- Headborne protection
- Ballistic shields
- Hard body armor inserts
- Vehicle armor
T-Link™ is a good candidate when typical thermoplastic adhesive films do not perform sufficiently. Due to its thermoplastic nature, T-Link™ is drapable for deep drawn parts allowing for the production of irregularly shaped components. T-Link™ is also commonly used to replace messy and time-consuming liquid epoxy solutions.
