The ballistic superiority of various fabric and resin types was examined using ballistic testing, Instron, and peel test data. All cured samples were made at 1000 p.s.i. for 10 minutes at 105°C except S-M/P panels. The latter were fabricated at 1000 p.s.i. for 10, 20, 30, and 60 minutes at 117°C. Data was insufficient to conclude the superiority of the surface treated laminates. However, it suggests the advantage of 10 minute curing time in S-M/P laminates and clearly points out the better kinetic energy absorption of spectra over kevlar. Yet, kevlar or predominantly kevlar laminates show the best Instron and peel test data.
