Patent ID: 7148162

Claim:
A ballistic laminate structure in sheet form, comprising: (a) a first high-performance unifabric composite including an array of unidirectionally-oriented fiber bundles carried on a first fiber-stabilizing scrim and said bundles comprising fibers having a tensile strength greater than 7 grams per denier, and said first scrim comprising a heat-activated fibrous web; (b) a second high-performance unifabric composite cross-plied at an angle to said first unifabric composite, said second unifabric composite including an array of high performance, unidirectionally-oriented fiber bundles carried on a second fiber-stabilizing scrim and said bundles comprising fibers having a tensile strength greater than 7 grams per denier, and said second scrim comprising a heat-activated fibrous web; and (c) whereby said first and second unifabric composites are thermally-bonded together upon heat activation of said first and second scrims to form said ballistic laminate structure.
