Personal Protection Polymers

Personal Protection Polymers also called PPP, is a Dalmer technology for lightweight materials that are good for three reasons, they can be easily programmed (as for outfits) they are (relatively lightweight) and are effective at receiving and dispersing energy be it physical, energy or heat based. The term PPP encompasses all materials developed to aid in personal protection, the most ubiquitous being outfits, nesting doll armor and nesting doll shields.
Personal protection is one of the most noticeable technological leaps made in the field of protecting people from harm. The empire is especially proficient at doing so. Its research into polymers resulted in suits of advanced combat armor being widely deployed across the country to police and military forces, and even civilians with a special permit. This armor protects the wearer from conventional and explosive damage as well as laser and plasma, a trait quite useful on the modern battlefield. 
Due to the specificity of the armor to be able to withstand laser and plasma weaponry, the polymer is standard in most STAMP gear. The armor protects the user from most physical attacks such as strikes and aerial attacks. 
== Limitations ==
Where it fails however is in its hud which shuts down when confronted by stun strikes, leaving the user open to attack. 
Charge suits, restrainer suits and exoskeletons suffer from the same issues. 
== Construction ==
Civilian armor is designed to protect from cuts, slashes, bites and stabs. It also gives data on cardiac and respiratory frequency.
The ballistic and combat armor variants are constructed around four respective elements
Combat armor is designed for melee combat. Composed of:
* An impact resistant outer shell
* A subsuit of low velocity impact gel
* Kinetic dispersal substructure
* Integrated biomechanical support
Ballistic armor is designed to resist high velocity impacts. Composed of: 
* Undersuit weave
* Composite armor plates
* Kinetic impact gel
* Interlocking plate substructure
== Technologies using personal protection polymers ==
Personal protection polymers are used extensively in armor and clothing.
