Patent AT-E399973-T1: [Translated] HIGH-STRENGTH SURFACES FOR END-BALLISTIC PROTECTION AND WEAR PROTECTION AND METHOD FOR THE PRODUCTION THEREOF

The invention relates to the field of materials science and to high-strength planar structures for the protection of vehicles and people. The aim of the invention is to provide high-strength planar structures which are characterized in that the planar structure is only destroyed in the immediate vicinity of an impact. This aim is achieved by a high-strength planar structure that consists of individual elements that give, applied to a backing material, the high-strength planar structure. The individual elements have the shape of regular pyramids and tetrahedrons or irregular pentahedrons and/or hexahedrons and/or the individual elements consist of combined and interlinked shapes (compound shapes) of regular pyramids and tetrahedrons or irregular pentahedrons and/or hexahedrons. The aim is also achieved by a method which is characterized in that individual elements and/or shapes (compound shapes) combined from such individual elements and interlinked are combined to give a planar structure and are non-positively linked with a backing material at least on one side.
