Description

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Die Erfindung betrifft ein mehrschichtiges Panzerschutzmaterial beinhaltend eine einoder vielstückige keramische oder metallische Schicht, welcher in Beschussrichtung gesehen eine hintere Stützschicht aus glasfaserverstärktem Kunststoff (GFK) und/oder aus kohlenstofffaserverstärktem Kunststoff (CFK) nachgeordnet ist, gemäß dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1 sowie ein Verfahren zu seiner Herstellung gemäß dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 14.The invention relates to a multilayer armor protection material comprising a one or vielstückige ceramic or metallic layer, which in the direction of bombardment seen a rear support layer of glass fiber reinforced plastic (GRP) and / or made of carbon fiber reinforced plastic (CFRP), according to the preamble of claim 1 and a method for its preparation according to the preamble of claim 14.

Durch Panzerschutzmaterial können terrestrische und flugfähige Fahrzeuge wie beispielsweise Flugzeuge, Helikopter und Satelliten sowie potentiell gefährdete Personen gegen Impact bzw. ballistische Bedrohungen geschützt werden. Im Bereich der Luft- und Raumfahrt sind vor allem Panzerschutzmaterialien mit einem günstigen Masse-Schutz-Verhältnis von Vorteil. Zur Zerstörung der Projektile sind im Bereich des zivilen terrestrischen Fahrzeugschutzes insbesondere auf speziellen Stahlsorten basierende Schichten im Einsatz, während im militärischen, wie auch im Bereich des Personenschutzes keramische Schichten verwendet werden.Through armor protection, terrestrial and airworthy vehicles can For example, airplanes, helicopters and satellites as well as potentially endangered ones Persons against impact or ballistic threats. in the Areas of aerospace are mainly anti-tank materials with a favorable mass-protection ratio of advantage. To destroy the projectiles are in Field of civilian terrestrial vehicle protection, in particular on special Steel grade based layers in use, while in military, as well as in the Area of personal protection ceramic layers are used.

Auf Keramik basierendes Panzerschutzmaterial weist gegenüber Stahllösungen ein geringeres Flächengewicht bei gleicher Schutzleistung auf. Dem steht das bessere Multi-Hit-Verhalten des Stahls entgegen. Darunter versteht man den Erhalt der projektilstoppenden Eigenschaften bei mehrfachem Impact in geringen Trefferabständen. Bei Panzerschutzmaterial mit Stahlschicht liegen diese Abstände typischerweise im Bereich von Abständen, die dem dreifachen Durchmesser des Geschosses entsprechen. Bei Verwendung einer keramischen Schicht liegt der tolerierbare Trefferabstand etwa im Bereich des 8- bis 10-fachen des Durchmessers des Geschosses. Ceramic-based armor protection material is superior to steel solutions lower basis weight with the same protection performance. That's the better Contrary to multi-hit behavior of the steel. By this one understands the receipt of the projectile-stopping properties with multiple impact in low Hits intervals. In armor protection material with steel layer, these distances are typically in the range of distances that are three times the diameter of the Bullet correspond. When using a ceramic layer is the Tolerable hit distance in the range of 8 to 10 times the diameter of the projectile.

Allen Lösungen, bei denen das Geschoss bzw. der Geschosskern zunächst gebrochen werden muss, ist gemein, dass Sie aus mindestens zwei Schichten mit unterschiedlichen Funktionen bestehen. Dabei hat eine vordere, der Beschussbeanspruchung zugewandte Schicht, welche beispielsweise aus Stahl oder Keramik besteht, die Aufgabe, das Geschoss weitestgehend zu zersplittern. Eine weitere Schicht, das sogenannte Backing übernimmt die Funktion des Auffangens von Geschosssplittern, sowie die Absorption der restlichen kinetischen Energie. Die Schichten können einander unmittelbar kontaktieren und sind miteinander verklebt oder sie stehen in einem geschotteten System in definiertem Abstand zueinander.All solutions in which the bullet or bullet core first It has to be broken that you have at least two layers with you different functions exist. It has a front, the Beschussbeanspruchung facing layer, which, for example, steel or Ceramic is the task of splitting the projectile as far as possible. A another layer, the so-called backing takes over the function of the catching of shrapnel, as well as the absorption of residual kinetic energy. The Layers can contact each other directly and are glued together or they are in a partitioned system at a defined distance from each other.

In der gattungsbildenden DE 41 14 809 A1 ist ein geschoßfestes Plattenmaterial beschrieben, mit einer Frontschicht aus sechseckförmigen Keramikplatten, welcher in Beschussrichtung gesehen eine erste harte Laminatlage aus verdichtetem GFK-Material nachgeordnet ist. Unter Zwischenfügung einer Klebefolie wird eine zweite Laminatlage aus GFK-Material vorgesehen, die gegenüber der ersten Laminatlage weicher ist. Durch die hintere, als Stützschicht wirkende harte Laminatlage soll die Keramikschicht abgestützt werden, wenn diese von einem Geschoss bzw. von beim Aufschlag entstehenden Geschosssplittern durchschlagen wird. Die nachgeordnete, weichere Laminatlage soll als Fangschicht das Geschoss bzw. die Geschosssplitter auffangen, ohne dabei zu zerreißen.In the generic DE 41 14 809 A1 is a bulletproof plate material described, with a front layer of hexagonal ceramic plates, which Seen in the direction of firing a first hard laminate layer of compressed FRP material is subordinate. With the interposition of an adhesive film is a second Laminate layer made of fiberglass material, which faces the first laminate layer is softer. Through the rear, acting as a support layer hard laminate layer is the Ceramic layer are supported, if this of a projectile or at Shock impacting projectile fragments will penetrate. The subordinate, softer laminate layer is intended as a catch layer the projectile or the Geschosssplitter catch without breaking.

Häufig basieren bei gewichtsoptimierten Ansätzen die Lösungen auf einer Kombination einer Keramikschicht und einem Backing auf Gewebebasis beispielsweise aus Aramid oder Dyneema. Der minimal mögliche Trefferabstand solcher Systeme liegt jedoch über dem angestrebten und mit Stahl realisierbaren. Grund ist zum einem die begrenzte Scherfestigkeit des Klebers zwischen Keramik und dem Gewebe und zum anderen die Schädigung der Keramik und die damit verbundene Abnahme der Steifigkeit des Gesamtsystems bei wiederholtem Auftreffen von Geschossen. Weiterhin reicht auch bei Verwendung von Stahlschichten die Steifigkeit gegenüber Geschossen mit hoher kinetischer Energie und hoher Härte oft nicht mehr aus. In weight-optimized approaches, the solutions are often based on one Combination of a ceramic layer and a backing based on fabric for example Aramid or Dyneema. The minimum possible hit distance However, such systems is above the desired and feasible with steel. One reason is the limited shear strength of the adhesive between ceramics and on the other hand, the damage to the ceramic and the other Associated decrease in the rigidity of the overall system in repeated Impact of projectiles. Furthermore, even with the use of Steel layers provide rigidity to projectiles with high kinetic energy and high hardness is often not enough.

Nasslaminate während eines Aushärtezeitraums thermisch und/oder durch elektromagnetische Strahlung ausgehärtet und zumindest während eines Teils des Aushärtezeitraums gegen eine oder beide Oberflächen der keramischen oder metallischen Schicht gepresst werden. Hierdurch wird ein Heißpressprozess verwirklicht, bei welchem der aushärtende Binder der beidseitig angeordneten Faserstoffmatten für einen Stoffschluss mit der Oberfläche der Keramik- bzw. der Stahlschicht sorgen, ohne dass zusätzlich ein Klebstoff verwendet werden müsste. Durch das beidseitige Pressen können außerdem in vorteilhafter Weise während eines einzigen Verfahrensschritts beide Stützschichten, die vordere und die hintere Stützschicht auf die Keramik- bzw. Stahlschicht aufgebracht werden.According to the manufacturing method of claim 14 is applied to the Beschussbeanspruchung facing surface of the ceramic or Metallic layer The front support layer made of glass fiber reinforced plastic and / or made of carbon fiber reinforced plastic and / or on the of the Abrasive surface facing away from the ceramic or Metallic layer, the rear support layer made of glass fiber reinforced plastic and / or carbon fiber reinforced plastic applied by Glass fiber fabric and / or carbon fiber fabric for training with binder impregnated pulp mats (prepregs or wet laminates) with a binder, in particular impregnated with a binder resin, and the impregnated Prepregs or wet laminates during a cure period thermally and / or cured by electromagnetic radiation and at least during a part the curing period against one or both surfaces of the ceramic or metallic layer are pressed.

Von Vorteil ist die Verwendung von glasfaserverstärktem Kunststoff und/oder kohlenstoff-faserverstärktem Kunststoff für die vordere und/oder die hintere Stützschicht auch, wenn die keramische oder metallische Schicht mindestens lokal von einer ebenen Platte abweicht und eine Krümmung und/oder eine Abwinkelung aufweist und/oder wenn die Schichtdicke der keramischen oder metallischen Schicht variabel ist. Denn die meist auf der Basis von Gelegen, Geweben, Gewirken oder Gestricken vorhandenen Faserkunststoffe lassen sich vor dem Aushärten leicht an unebene Formen anpassen. Besonders bevorzugt beinhaltet der glasfaserverstärkte Kunststoff und/oder der kohlenstofffaserverstärkte Kunststoff ein unidirektionales Gelege aus um 90 Grad zueinander versetzt angeordneten Schichten paralleler Fasern. An advantage is the use of glass fiber reinforced plastic and / or Carbon fiber reinforced plastic for the front and / or the rear Support layer also, if the ceramic or metallic layer at least locally deviates from a flat plate and a curvature and / or a bend and / or if the layer thickness of the ceramic or metallic layer is variable. Because the most on the basis of layers, fabrics, knitted or Knitted existing fiber plastics can be easily before curing Adjust uneven shapes. Particularly preferred includes the glass fiber reinforced Plastic and / or the carbon fiber reinforced plastic a unidirectional Scrim of 90 degrees offset to each other arranged layers parallel Fibers.

Gemäß einer Weiterbildung weist die vordere Stützschicht und/oder die hintere Stützschicht einen auf das Volumen bezogenen Kohlenstoff- und/oder Glasfaseranteil von mindestens 10 % auf.According to a development, the front support layer and / or the rear Support layer a volume related carbon and / or Glass fiber content of at least 10%.

Gemäß einer weiterbildenden Maßnahme besteht die Matrix der vorderen Stützschicht und/oder der hinteren Stützschicht aus einem thermisch und/oder durch elektromagnetische Strahlung aushärtbaren Polymer, beispielsweise aus einem Phenolharz.According to a further development measure, the matrix consists of the front Support layer and / or the rear support layer of a thermal and / or by electromagnetic radiation curable polymer, for example from a Phenolic resin.

Bei Verwendung einer keramischen Schicht kann diese eine monolithische Keramik beispielweise aus Aluminiumoxid oder Siliziumcarbid aufweisen. Alternativ kann auch eine faserverstärkte Keramik verwendet werden. Insbesondere wird eine gesinterte, oder durch Infiltration mit flüssigem Silizium hergestellte Keramik verwendet.When using a ceramic layer, this can be a monolithic ceramic For example, from alumina or silicon carbide. Alternatively, too a fiber reinforced ceramic can be used. In particular, a sintered, or ceramic produced by infiltration with liquid silicon.

Faserverstärkte Keramiken können bevorzugt sog. C/SiC-Werkstoffe sein, bei denen vorzugsweise kohlenstoffbasierte Fasern, insbesondere Kohlenstoffasern oder Graphitfasern in einer überwiegend aus SiC, Si und C gebildeten Matrix gebunden sind. Die C/SiC-Verbundkeramiken können auch andere hochtemperaturbeständige Fasern umfassen, die neben Kohlenstoff noch weitere Elemente, wie beispielsweise Si, B, N, O oder Ti enthalten. Die Vorgehensweise zur Herstellung von C/SiC-Werkstoff ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass zunächst ein CFC-Werkstoff gebildet wird. Besonders bevorzugt ist die Herstellung von kurzfaserbündelverstärktem CFK (Kohlenstoffaserverstärkte Kunststoffe), bestehend aus mit einer carbonisierbaren Substanz und/oder mit Kohlenstoff beschichteten Kohlenstofffasern oder Faserbündeln und Füllstoffen und Bindern, der mit einem Kern zur gewünschten Form gepresst und ausgehärtet und hierauf carbonisiert und/oder graphitiert wird, so daß ein CFC- oder C/C- Formkörper als Zwischenprodukt entsteht. Dieser Formkörper wird im vorliegenden Fall als dünne Platte mit der gewünschten Dicke gefertigt. Das Basismaterial ist indessen nicht auf CFC-Werkstoffe beschränkt. Als Fasermaterial können ebenso auch weitere temperaturstabile Keramikfasern, insbesondere auf der Basis von SiO2, Al2O3, ZrO2, oder SiC, verwendet werden, die mit Kohlenstoff oder Graphit beschichtet wurden. Fiber-reinforced ceramics may preferably be so-called C / SiC materials, in which preferably carbon-based fibers, in particular carbon fibers or graphite fibers are bonded in a matrix formed predominantly of SiC, Si and C. The C / SiC composite ceramics may also comprise other high temperature resistant fibers which contain, in addition to carbon, other elements such as Si, B, N, O or Ti. The procedure for producing C / SiC material is characterized in that initially a CFC material is formed. Particularly preferred is the production of short fiber bundle reinforced CFRP (carbon fiber reinforced plastics) consisting of carbonizable substance and / or carbon coated carbon fibers or fiber bundles and fillers and binders pressed with a core to the desired shape and cured and then carbonized and / or graphitized is, so that a CFC or C / C-shaped body is formed as an intermediate. This shaped body is manufactured in the present case as a thin plate with the desired thickness. However, the base material is not limited to CFC materials. Other temperature-stable ceramic fibers, in particular those based on SiO 2 , Al 2 O 3 , ZrO 2 , or SiC, which have been coated with carbon or graphite, may likewise be used as the fiber material.

Das Plattenmaterial aus kohlenstoffaserverstärktem Kohlenstoffwerkstoff wird anschließend bei Temperaturen um etwa 1600 °C im Vakuum oder unter Inertgas mit einer Siliziumschmelze oder einer Siliziumlegierungsschmelze infiltriert, wodurch zumindest ein Teil des Kohlenstoffs der Matrix und/oder der Fasern in SiC umgewandelt wird. Neben Silizium können als weitere Bestandteile der Schmelze auch die Metalle der Nebengruppen I bis VIII verwendet werden, insbesondere Ti, Cr, Fe, Mo, B und Ni. Durch die Flüssiginfiltration des CFC-Formkörpers entsteht ein dichter, fester und sehr harter Formkörper aus C/SiC-Werkstoff enthaltend Fasern, im allgemeinen Kohlenstoffasern, mit einer Matrix aus überwiegend SiC, Si und C.The plate material is made of carbon fiber reinforced carbon material then at temperatures of about 1600 ° C in vacuo or under inert gas with a silicon melt or a silicon alloy melt infiltrated, thereby at least part of the carbon of the matrix and / or the fibers in SiC is converted. In addition to silicon can be used as further components of the melt also the metals of the subgroups I to VIII are used, in particular Ti, Cr, Fe, Mo, B and Ni. The liquid infiltration of the CFC molding results in a dense, strong and very hard shaped body of C / SiC material containing fibers, generally carbon fibers, with a matrix of predominantly SiC, Si and C.

Alternativ kann die Matrix des Formkörpers ganz oder teilweise durch eine Gasphaseninfiltration (CVD oder CVI) erzeugt werden. Dann weist die Matrix einen relativ hohen SiC-Gehalt auf, typischerweise über 95%. Weiterhin kann die Herstellung der Matrix durch die Pyrolyse von Si-haltigen, präkeramischen Polymeren erfolgen, wie sie zum Beispiel durch die Pyrolyse von Polymeren entstehen, die eines oder mehrere der Elemente Si, B, C, N, P oder Ti enthalten.Alternatively, the matrix of the molding may be wholly or partly through a Gas phase infiltration (CVD or CVI) are generated. Then the matrix has one relatively high SiC content, typically over 95%. Furthermore, the Production of the matrix by the pyrolysis of Si-containing, preceramic Polymers are made, as for example by the pyrolysis of polymers arise containing one or more of the elements Si, B, C, N, P or Ti.

Bevorzugte Anwendungen des erfindungsgemäßen Panzerschutzmaterials betreffen den ballistischen Schutz in Land-, Luft- und Wasserfahrzeugen, als Einlage oder integraler Bestandteil von Schutzwesten sowie als Satelliten-Schutzschild. Bei allen diesen Anwendungen ist besonders das geringe Gewicht von glasfaserverstärktem Kunststoff oder kohlenstofffaserverstärktem Kunststoff von Vorteil. Für die letzt genannte Verwendung als Satelliten-Schutzschild ist vor allem eine Keramik basierend auf C/SiC-Werkstoff wegen der hohen Temperaturbeständigkeit von Vorteil.Preferred applications of the armor protection material according to the invention relate the ballistic protection in land, air and water vehicles, as deposit or integral part of protective vests and as a satellite shield. At all These applications are especially the low weight of glass fiber reinforced Plastic or carbon fiber reinforced plastic advantageous. For the last Above-mentioned use as a satellite protective shield is a ceramic based on C / SiC material because of the high temperature resistance of Advantage.

Gemäß einer besonders zu bevorzugenden Weiterbildung des erfindungsgemäßen Verfahrens wird durch den Pressvorgang und das Aushärten gleichzeitig auf die von der Beschussbeanspruchung weg weisende Oberfläche der hinteren Stützschicht eine insbesondere Aluminium, Aramid oder Dyneema beinhaltende Auffangschicht aufgebracht. Dann können mit einem einzigen Pressvorgang vier Schichten, nämlich die vordere Stützschicht, die Keramik- oder Stahlschicht, die hintere Stützschicht sowie die Auffangschicht miteinander verbunden werden, wobei jeweils durch den aushärtenden Binder der die vordere und hintere Stützschicht bildenden Prepregs der Stoffschluss zwischen den einzelnen Schichten zustandekommt.According to a particularly preferable development of the invention Process is by the pressing process and curing simultaneously on the the impact stress facing surface of the back support layer a catchment layer comprising in particular aluminum, aramid or dyneema applied. Then with a single pressing process four layers, namely the front support layer, the ceramic or steel layer, the rear support layer and the collecting layer are joined together, each by the thermosetting binder of the prepregs forming the front and back support layers the material connection between the individual layers comes about.

Alternativ können einzelne oder sämtliche der genannten Schichten auch mittels Flüssigkleber oder Klebefolie miteinander verklebt werden.Alternatively, individual or all of the layers mentioned can also be used by Liquid adhesive or adhesive film are glued together.

Zeichnungendrawings

Nachstehend ist ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung in den Zeichnungen dargestellt und in der nachfolgenden Beschreibung näher erläutert. Die einzige Figur zeigt eine Schnittdarstellung eines Panzermaterials gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung.Below is an embodiment of the invention in the drawings shown and explained in more detail in the following description. The only figure shows a sectional view of an armor material according to a preferred Embodiment of the invention.

Beschreibung der AusführungsbeispieleDescription of the embodiments

Im Rahmen des Herstellungsverfahrens des in der Figur gezeigten bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiels eines erfindungsgemäßen Panzermaterials 1 wird eine ca. 12 mm dicke, mit Kohlenstofffasern verstärkte Keramikplatte 2, insbesondere eine Platte aus einer C/SiC-Verbundkeramik mit den Abmessungen 350 mm x 400 mm auf der von der Beschussbeanspruchung weg weisenden Oberfläche mit 12 Lagen eines unidirektionales Gelege aus um 90 Grad zueinander versetzt angeordneten Schichten paralleler Kohlenstofffasern unmittelbar belegt. Auf der gegenüberliegenden, der Beschussbeanspruchung zugewandten Oberfläche der Keramikplatte werden 2 Lagen des vorzugsweise gleichen unidirektionalen Geleges unmittelbar zur Anlage gebracht.In the context of the manufacturing process of the preferred shown in the figure Embodiment of an armor material 1 according to the invention is an approximately 12 mm thick, carbon fiber reinforced ceramic plate 2, in particular a plate from a C / SiC composite ceramic with the dimensions 350 mm x 400 mm on the anti-abrasion surface with 12 layers of one unidirectional clutch of 90 degrees offset from each other Layers of parallel carbon fibers directly occupied. On the opposite, the shelling facing surface of the Ceramic plate are 2 layers of preferably the same unidirectional Geleges immediately brought to the plant.

Beide Gelege werden vor dem oder gleichzeitig mit dem Auflegen auf die Keramikschicht 2 mit einem thermisch und/oder durch elektromagnetische Strahlung aushärtbaren Polymer, insbesondere mit einem Phenolharz als Binder imprägniert, um mit dem Binder imprägnierte Faserstoffmatten, sog. Prepregs auszubilden, bei welchen die Matrix aus dem Polymer besteht.Both clutches are before or at the same time as hanging up on the Ceramic layer 2 with a thermal and / or electromagnetic radiation curable polymer, in particular impregnated with a phenolic resin as a binder, in order to form fibrous mats impregnated with the binder, so-called prepregs which the matrix consists of the polymer.

Die Aushärtung der Prepregs zu CFK (Kohlenstoffaserverstärkter Kunststoff) findet vorzugsweise mittels eines üblichen Autoklavprozesses statt, bei welchem die die Keramikschicht 2 umschließenden, imprägnierten Prepregs beispielsweise unter einer Aushärtetemperatur in einem Bereich zwischen 50 °C bis 180 °C und unter Pressen gegen die Keramikschicht ausgehärtet werden. Während des Aushärtevorgangs entsteht eine Adhäsion bzw. ein Stoffschluss der Prepregs mit den Oberflächen der Keramikschicht 2, indem der anfangs noch viskose Binder in die raue Oberflächenstruktur der Keramikschicht eindringt und nach einiger Zeit erstarrt bzw. aushärtet. Dabei bildet das der Keramikschicht in Beschussrichtung vorgeordnete, ausgehärtete Prepreg eine vordere Stützschicht 4 und das der Keramikschicht 2 in Beschussrichtung nachgeordnete, ausgehärtete Prepreg eine hintere Stützschicht 6 aus. Besonders bevorzugt kann während des Herstellprozesses die Keramikschicht von der vorderen Stützschicht und der hinteren Stützschicht vollständig ummantelt werden, insbesondere an den Stirnflächen.The curing of the prepregs to CFK (carbon fiber reinforced plastic) takes place Preferably, by means of a conventional Autoklavprozesses instead, in which the Ceramic layer 2 enclosing, impregnated prepregs, for example, below a curing temperature in a range between 50 ° C to 180 ° C and below Presses are cured against the ceramic layer. During the Hardening process creates an adhesion or a fabric bond of the prepregs with the surfaces of the ceramic layer 2, by the initially viscous binder in the rough surface structure of the ceramic layer penetrates and solidifies after some time or hardens. This forms the ceramic layer in the direction of bombardment upstream, cured prepreg has a front support layer 4 and that of Ceramic layer 2 downstream in the direction of bombardment, cured prepreg a rear support layer 6 from. Particularly preferred may be during the Manufacturing process, the ceramic layer of the front support layer and the rear Support layer are completely sheathed, especially at the end faces.

Vorzugsweise wird im Rahmen des Press- und Aushärtevorgangs gleichzeitig auf die von der Beschussbeanspruchung weg weisenden Oberfläche der hinteren Stützschicht eine insbesondere Aluminium, Aramid oder Dyneema beinhaltende Auffangschicht 8 mit einer Dicke von ca. 10 mm aufgebracht. Dann können mit einem einzigen Pressvorgang vier Schichten, nämlich die vordere Stützschicht 4, die Keramik- oder Stahlschicht 2, die hintere Stützschicht 6 sowie die Auffangschicht 8 miteinander verbunden werden.Preferably, in the context of pressing and curing simultaneously on the surface facing away from the impact stress of the rear Support layer containing in particular aluminum, aramid or Dyneema Captured layer 8 is applied with a thickness of about 10 mm. Then you can with a single pressing four layers, namely the front support layer 4, the Ceramic or steel layer 2, the rear support layer 6 and the collecting layer. 8 be connected to each other.

Alternativ wird der Press- und Aushärtevorgang auf die vordere Stützschicht 4, die Keramikschicht 2 und die hintere Stützschicht 8 beschränkt. Die Auffangschicht 8 in Form eines ca. 10 mm dicken Backings aus Aramidgewebe kann auch auf den derart vorbereiteten Schichtkörper aufgeklebt werden.Alternatively, the pressing and curing operation on the front support layer 4, the Ceramic layer 2 and the rear support layer 8 limited. The collecting layer 8 in Form of an approximately 10 mm thick backing made of aramid fabric can also on the such be glued prepared laminate.

Aufgrund der vor der Aushärtung flexiblen Materialeigenschaften der Prepregs können die vordere Stützschicht 4 und/oder die hintere Stützschicht 6 und evtl. auch das Backing 8 anstatt auf eine ebene Keramikschicht 2 auch auf eine mindestens lokal von einer ebenen Platte abweichende und eine Krümmung und/oder eine Abwinkelung aufweisende und/oder bezüglich der Schichtdicke variierende Keramikschicht 2 aufgebracht werden. Due to the flexible material properties of the prepregs before curing For example, the front support layer 4 and / or the rear support layer 6 and possibly also the backing 8 instead of a flat ceramic layer 2 on at least one locally deviating from a flat plate and a curvature and / or a Bending and / or varying with respect to the layer thickness Ceramic layer 2 are applied.

Das Panzermaterial wies ein Flächengewicht von weniger als 45 kg/m2 auf und wurde in Beschussversuchen entsprechend der Beschussklasse FB 7 getestet. Die Ergebnisse zeigten eine deutliche Steigerung der Steifigkeit gegenüber Panzermaterial ohne vordere, glas- oder kohlenstoffaserverstärkte Stützschicht 4. Die durch das Auftreffen des Projektils entstandenen Primär-, aber vor allem die Sekundarschädigungen in der Keramikplatte wurden demgegenüber stark reduziert. Bei der Ausführungsform mit aufgeklebtem Backing 8 konnten die Belastungen auf die Klebeverbindung zwischen der hinteren Stützschicht 6 und dem Backing 8 derart verringert werden, dass die sonst zu beobachtenden teilweisen oder ganzflächigen Ablösungen des Backings 8 ausblieben, wodurch das Panzermaterial 1 auch bei Mehrfachbeschuss intakt blieb und das Multihit-Verhalten stark verbessert wurde. Insgesamt wurde durch die genannten Maßnahmen nicht nur die flächengewichtsbezogene Schutzleistung erhöht, sondern es konnte auch die Haftung des Backings 8 am Rest des ballistischen Systems wesentlich verbessert werden.The armor material had a basis weight of less than 45 kg / m 2 and was tested in bombardment tests according to the fire class FB 7. The results showed a significant increase in rigidity compared to tank material without front, glass or carbon fiber reinforced support layer 4. The primary, but especially the secondary damage in the ceramic plate caused by the impact of the projectile were greatly reduced. In the embodiment with glued-back 8, the loads on the adhesive bond between the back support layer 6 and the backing 8 could be reduced so that the otherwise observed partial or full-scale detachment of the backing 8 remained, whereby the armor material 1 remained intact even with multiple bombardment and the multihit behavior has been greatly improved. Overall, not only the surface weight-related protection performance was increased by the measures mentioned, but it was also the adhesion of the backing 8 at the rest of the ballistic system can be significantly improved.

Bei den weiteren Ausführungsformen wurden jeweils nur die im folgenden explizit beschriebenen Merkmale des Panzermaterials verändert, bei ansonsten gleichem Aufbau wie beim bevorzugten Ausführungsbeispiel.In the other embodiments, only the following became explicit described characteristics of the armor material changed, otherwise the same Structure as in the preferred embodiment.

So wurde die kohlenstoffaserverstärkte Keramikplatte 2 der bevorzugten Ausführungsform durch eine Platte aus monolithischer Keramik ersetzt, welche beispielsweise aus Aluminiumoxid besteht. Die Abmessungen der Keramik betrugen ca. 250 mm x 350 mm, die Dicke 8 mm.Thus, the carbon fiber reinforced ceramic plate 2 became the preferred one Embodiment replaced by a plate of monolithic ceramic, which for example, consists of alumina. The dimensions of the ceramic were about 250 mm x 350 mm, the thickness 8 mm.

Eine Fortbildung der eingangs beschriebenen Ausführungsform sah vor, die kohlenstoffaserverstärkte Keramikplatte 2 durch eine Platte aus ballistischen Stahl mit einer Dicke von ca. 8 mm zu ersetzen.A further development of the embodiment described above provided that carbon fiber reinforced ceramic plate 2 through a ballistic steel plate to replace with a thickness of about 8 mm.

Gemäß einer Weiterbildung wurde die keramische Schicht 2 des Panzermaterials 1 aus einzelnen Keramikkacheln mit den Abmessungen 20 mm x 20 mm x 8 mm aufgebaut, die in für ballistische Systeme bekannter Weise aneinander gelegt wurden, um eine Keramikstruktur mit den Abmessung von 300 mm x 300 mm zu bilden.According to a development, the ceramic layer 2 of the armor material was 1 from individual ceramic tiles with the dimensions 20 mm x 20 mm x 8 mm constructed in a known manner for ballistic systems together were added to a ceramic structure measuring 300mm x 300mm form.

Bei einer weiteren Ausführungsform war die Keramikschicht 2 gekrümmt ausgebildet und insbesondere in Ihrer Geometrie dem Radlauf eines Kraftfahrzeugs angeglichen, wobei die aus flexiblen Faser-Gelegen bestehende vordere und hintere Stützschicht 4, 6 vor dem Aushärten leicht an diese gekrümmte Form anpassbar sind.In another embodiment, the ceramic layer 2 was curved and especially in your geometry adapted to the wheel arch of a motor vehicle, the flexible fiber-laid front and back support layer 4, 6 are easily adaptable to this curved shape before curing.

Weiterhin wurde auch gekrümmtes, auf einer Keramikschicht 2 basierendes Panzermaterial 1 als Einlage einer Schutz- oder Panzerweste hergestellt. Das Gesamtschutzsystem als Kombination von Einlage und Westenliner wurde wie eingangs beschrieben getestet, wobei das Resultat entsprechend positiv ausfiel.Furthermore, curved, based on a ceramic layer 2 was also Tank material 1 manufactured as a deposit of a protective or bulletproof vest. The Total protection system as a combination of liner and west liner was like tested in the beginning, the result was correspondingly positive.

Gemäß einer weiteren Fortbildung wurde als Backing 8 ein Dyneema-Gelege eingesetzt. Denkbar ist auch eine vordere und/oder hintere Stützschicht 4, 6 aus einem mit Kohlenstoff- und Aramidfasern bzw. mit Kohlenstoff- und Glasfasern aufgebauten Hybridgewebe.According to another training was as Backing 8 a Dyneema clutch used. Also conceivable is a front and / or rear support layer 4, 6 one with carbon and aramid fibers or with carbon and glass fibers built up hybrid fabric.
