Blast and Ballistic Resistant Coatings
Luna Innovations is developing a variety of blast and ballistic resistant coatings, materials and composites for critical defense and Homeland Security applications. By creating polymeric systems and fiber-weave composites from novel and commercially available components, Luna is creating high-strength, lightweight and flexible materials that range in application from soldiers to ships.
Examples include:
- a new ammunition packaging system to protect both ordnance and soldiers
- a flexible blast resistant polymer to improve the integrity of ship deck coating systems and to prevent interior shrapnel from brittle coatings in the event of an explosive blast
- lightweight, transparent, ballistic resistant polymers for use in next generation military visors
- high strength polymer composites to reduce blast damage on ground vehicles
