Abstract

The ballistic impact mechanism mainly depends on the thickness, strength, ductility, toughness, and density of the target material. Nanotechnology is an evolving technology, resulting in significant differences in product behavior. Nanomaterials are increasingly used in textiles to increase performance and provide unrivaled textile functionality. It is anticipated that materials such as dirt and waterproofing, breathability, UV protection, conductivity, and antistatic qualities, wear and wrinkle resistance, and stain resistance, and bacteria will be enhanced by nanomaterials or add new features. By incorporating nanoparticles into fibers, the mechanical qualities of textile fibers can be strengthened.
