Destination

The development concerns the creation and use of textile materials as components of personal protective equipment for servicemen and other categories of the population from the operation of barbed - cutting weapons, cold steel and firearms.

Key features, the essence of the development

The possibility of processing on a knitting equipment of a new non - traditional type of raw material - a high molecular weight polyethylene thread is established. Designed and manufactured prototype of knitted fabrics of double - colored interlacing - interlok and double - layer press compound of layers with the main thread on a two - circuit circular knitting machine. The strength of the knitted fabric is checked for the perforating action (more than 800 N). The designed canvases withstand the length gap and the width of 2250 and 1950 N, respectively. The parameters of the knitting mode have been established, which ensure the normal course of the process of elongation.

Intellectual Property Protection Status

The patent of Ukraine for the utility model was obtained.

Market demand

The development can fill an existing production niche, as there is no well - established production of high - strength knitted fabrics in Ukraine that dozens of sewing enterprises that specialize in the manufacture of personal protective equipment.

The state of readiness of development

Experimental samples were obtained.
