Title: Liquid Armor
Author: TMPH LAB.
PCA´s note: This is an ultimate level of STF Technology! The Liquid Armor is a concept-armor made of tiny iron particles suspended in silicone oil which are wired with an electrical current. When it suffers an impact, its particles gather and form a rigid and strong surface.
Title: Liquid Body Armor.
Author: Ivanhoe Broadcast News.
PCA´s note: It has been more than a decade that I first heard about STF technology where the knife blade does go through an STF coated fabric.
Maybe in the next decades, we will see ballistic vests and protective garments featuring the STF fabrics for real.
Title: Oobleck Pool
Author: KongLeong Bank.
PCA´s note: You do not have to be a Christian to walk through a pool full of Oebleck fluid… only understand what Non-Newtonians fluids act them they are approached gently and we punched them hardly! This is what it´s all about! Oobleck is a Shear Thickner Fluid or Non-Newtonians Fluids, non-toxic which you can easily feel and experience this sensation.
Title: Liquid Armor
Author: Moratex Institute Poland.
PCA´s note: In this BBC Brasil video we can see a physical prototype of a bulletproof vest with STF treated foam which by changing the polymer´s viscosity, it reduces dramatically the impact forces generated by the bullet. The trauma reduction is also very positive news from 4cm to 1cm deformation.
The STF technology definitely will pay an important role in the protective ballistic vest in the near future.
