Application of boron carbide in the field of defense industry
Making bulletproof materials such as bulletproof panels in bulletproof vests, ceramic bulletproof tiles for military aircraft pilot cockpits, and ceramic bulletproof panels for modern armored personnel carriers and tanks. In the military industry, it can be used as a nozzle for making guns. the weight reduction effect is not obvious. Performance Boron carbide ceramic composite armor is 15%~20% lighter than Al2O3-based bulletproof ceramics, and the bulletproof performance is further improved. Therefore, the key equipment engineering ceramic composite armor development project puts forward an urgent demand for high-performance, low-cost boron carbide bulletproof ceramics. Therefore, the development and application of high-performance, low-cost boron carbide bulletproof ceramic materials can greatly improve the performance of related military defense equipment, and have significant military and economic benefits. The application direction of boron carbide bulletproof ceramic materials is: key equipment projects, future main battle tanks, infantry fighting vehicles, airborne airborne vehicles and other light armored vehicles, as well as the armor protection of armed helicopter webs and ship superstructures.
