Thermoplastic Materials For Face Shields

Quintium is a two-part 100 solids castable system. Castings are clear and can be made to optical specifications. Quintium contains a UV stabilizer package and absorbs UV radiation up through 400 nm. It can be formulated with fire retardant additives can be tinted and has excellent heat and solvent resistance. Quintium is highly impact resistant and has a minimum V50 rating at 1139 fps. Typical stacked arrays may be used to improve the ballistic profile of Quintium. Quintium can be cast in various thicknesses and numerous mold configurations. Key properties include Unrivaled impact resistance and kinetic energy absorption Exceptional multi-hit performance Great optical clarity Significantly reduced weight approximately of ballistic glass Unlike most other ballistic-resistant polymers it is resistant to chemical solvents and aromatic hydrocarbons e.g. gasoline No charring when burning Applications - Bullet-resistant windows for vehicles buildings - Safety goggles or eye shields - Hurricane windows - Forced entry resistant glazing - Transparent structures components - Blast-resistant transparencies - Personal armor shielding Impact Resistance Total Energy ftlbs The Hanson Group LLC Quintium Q20 Transparent Armor 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 0 65 48 0.5 2 Glass Acrylic Glass Acrylic Polycarbonate Polycarbonate Quintium Quintium Instrumented Impact per ASTM D3763 sample thickness 0.125 nominal Typical Properties Property Test Method Units Values Physical Specific Gravity ASTM D 792 -- 1.11 Hardness ASTM D 2240 Shore D 80-82 HDT ASTM D 648 F 300-320 Stress Craze Resistance IPA ASTM F 791 psi 7000 -- lbft2 0.69 Tensile Strength ASTM D 412 psi 8000 Elongation ASTM D 412 42 Flexural Modulus ASTM D 790 psi 194000 Izod Impact Strength Unnotched 0.125 ASTM D 4812 ftlbsin 54 no failure Instrumented impact 0.125 ASTM D 3763 ftlbs 65 1.538 Mass Area Mechanical Optical Refractive Index ASMT D 542 -- Light Transmission Clear 0.118 ASTM D 1003 90 Abbe Value ASMT D 542 -- 42-4
