Abstract

See full text

The present invention provides silk fibre reinforced composite materials comprising a thermoplastic polymer matrix, which are relatively light, whilst having a high impact resistance. The silk fibre reinforced composite materials of the present invention allow for an optimal dissipation of the impact energy such that they have a penetration resistance higher than 20 J per mm of plate thickness, more preferably more than 30 J per mm, most preferably more than 40 J per mm. Due to the high impact resistance of the fibrous composite material according to the present invention, panels or shells comprising such composites are particularly useful for the manufacture of objects, which in the course of their life cycle are subject to shocks or at risk of penetration.
