Russia found materials for producing 'super-armor' armor for firefighters

Russian media on December 13 reported that a group of young professionals from Russia's National University of Technology and Research (MISiS) have developed a new material to produce armor with "super" Vietnam "for firefighters and rescue workers.

The secret of the new fabric is synthetic fibers, also known as aramid fibers with special magnetic-alloy coating.

The armor of this fabric combines two distinctly different qualities: increased heat resistance and cold tolerance. New armor can protect rescue personnel even when temperatures reach 1,200 degrees Celsius.

When exposed to such high temperatures, the new fabric shrinks, can crack, but does not burn and it can also withstand cold weather, down to minus 120 degrees Celsius.

Aramid fibers are orange in the Arctic or in high mountains with heavy snow, and people in this color can be detected from afar.

In addition, the new material is highly durable and produces a protective magnetic field, which can invigorate and stimulate human activity.

Prof. Vadim Tarasov, the school's specialists working with the Ministry of Emergencies in Russia, conducted trials to determine the optimal properties of the armor. new.

Expected at the end of this year, this unique armor will be added to the Arctic Rescue staff's equipment system.
