Problems solved by technology

However, since high-strength fibers constituting the bulletproof garment are vulnerable to water, a serious problem such as deterioration in bulletproofness of bulletproof garments under harsh environments or after use for a long period of time occurs.
However, a problem in which water repellency imparted to the bulletproof fabric using water repellent treatment cannot be maintained for a long period of time still remains.
That is, the water-repellent agent component (for example, a fluorocarbon compound) that is adhered to the bulletproof fabric through water repellent treatment is disadvantageously readily removed from the bulletproof fabric due to exterior environments and/or passage of time.
As a result, a con

example 1

[0056]A fabric was woven as a plain weave using wholly aromatic polyamide multi-filaments comprising wholly aromatic polyamide monofilaments having a fineness of 1.0 as warps and wefts. The warp density and the weft density were 10 pcs / cm. Subsequently, the fabric was treated at about 60° C. with a scouring agent comprising Naz CO3, washed with water and dried.

[0057]Subsequently, the scoured fabric was immersed in a water-repellent agent to impregnate the water-repellent agent in the fabric. The water-repellent agent comprises 3% by weight of a hydroxylated perfluoroalkylethyl acrylate copolymer, 3% by weight of polyethylene terephthalate, 3% by weight of toluene diisocyanate, 0.3% by weight of diprophylene glycol, 0.3% by weight of maleic acid, 0.3% by weight of maleic acid, and 90.1% by weight of water.

[0058]The water-repellent agent-impregnated fabric was heat-treated at a temperature of about 160° C. for 60 seconds to complete a bulletproof fabric.

example 2

[0059]A bulletproof fabric was prepared in the same manner as in Example 1, except that a water-repellent agent comprising the same amount of a polyacrylate resin, instead of polyethylene terephthalate was used.

example 3

[0060]A bulletproof fabric was prepared in the same manner as in Example 1, except that a water-repellent agent comprising the same amount of a melamine resin, instead of polyethylene terephthalate was used.

Abstract

Disclosed are a bulletproof fabric and a method for producing the same that exhibit improved anti-traumaproperty and minimize deterioration in bulletproofness even after use under harsh conditions for a long period of time. The bulletproof fabric includes a fabric comprising at least one high-strength fiber selected from the group consisting of a high molecular weight polyethylene fiber, an aramid fiber, and a polybenzoxazole fiber, and a water repellent layer disposed on the high-strength fiber, wherein the water repellent layer is formed by treating the fabric with a water-repellent agent comprising fluorocarbon and a hardness-enhancing resin, and the hardness-enhancing resin is a polyvinyl acetate resin, a polyester resin, a polyacrylate resin, a melamine resin, or a mixture of two or more thereof.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD[0001]The present invention relates to a bulletproof fabric and a method for producing the same. More specifically, the present invention relates to a bulletproof fabric and a method for producing the same that exhibit improved anti-trauma property and minimize deterioration in bulletproofness even after use under harsh conditions for a long period of time.BACKGROUND ART[0002]A bulletproof garment is clothing that is developed to protect the body from fragments of shells or bullets. Accordingly, the most important requirement of bulletproof garments is bulletproofness. However, since high-strength fibers constituting the bulletproof garment are vulnerable to water, a serious problem such as deterioration in bulletproofness of bulletproof garments under harsh environments or after use for a long period of time occurs.[0003]In order to solve this problem, the applicant suggested a water repellent treatment method using a bulletproof fabric (Korean Patent Laid-open No. 1...
