The New Kevlar

Ijust read this article about a new form of Kevlar that has a liquid "custard" between each layer of the material. This allows for new body armor to be made that uses significantly less layers of Kevlar (about 1/3) then normal. This will allow troops to move more easily on the battlefield and will prevent them from overheating in combat areas such as Afganistan where the temperture is known to sore.
