Boron Carbide Armor Plates
Boron Carbide Bulletproof Plate, also known as B₄C plate, it is a type of ceramic plate used in personal body armor and vehicle armor. It is made of boron carbide, which is a ceramic material with high hardness, high compressive strength, and low density. B₄C plate is lightweight and durable, making it an ideal material for protective armor. It is commonly used in conjunction with other materials such as Kevlar to create ballistic armor for military and law enforcement applications. B₄C plates are designed to withstand high-velocity impacts and provide protection against a range of threats, including bullets and shrapnel.
Applications:
- Bullet-resistant Armor Plates
- Body Armor
- Helicopter Panels
- Lightweight Vehicle Protection Panels
