Problems solved by technology

[0004] The disadvantage of the above silicon carbide / graphene composite material and its preparation method is that the microstructure of the composite material is isotropic, and the graphene nanosheets are randomly oriented in the silicon carbide matrix.
On the one hand, this prevents the mechanical properties of composite materials from being fully utilized along the direction of actual use; on the other hand, the propagation of cracks in composite materials cannot be effectively hindered by graphene sheets, so the fracture toughness, impact toughness and It is difficult to significantly improve the resistance to multiple impacts

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of composite materials for bulletproof armor, in particular to a silicon carbide / graphene biomimetic composite material for bulletproof armor and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Bulletproof armor is a kind of protective device that can absorb the kinetic energy of dissipated warheads and fragments and prevent penetration, thereby effectively protecting the human body and the protected parts of equipment. It can effectively reduce the casualty rate of one's own soldiers and preserve vitality to the greatest extent. Realizing the toughness and lightweight of bulletproof armor materials can effectively improve the protective effect and service life of bulletproof armor, and at the same time reduce the load of soldiers and equipment, so it has important practical significance. As an important bulletproof armor material, silicon carbide ceramics have a low density (the density is about 3.2g / cm ...
