GlasArmor panels made with fiber-reinforced polymer
(FRP) composites provide excellent ballistic stopping
power for the MPS while meeting the requirement of
being lightweight and portable.
They are constructed
from layers of 0°/90° woven E-glass fiber reinforcements
combined with a proprietary resin system in a
continuous pultrusion manufacturing process.

https://www.avient.com/sites/default/files/2024-07/Ballistic Resistant Composite Panels Product Selection _ Install Guide.pdf
Originally developed for protection from mortar
fire, fiber-reinforced composite panels offer
superior ballistic resistance at less than 25% of the
weight of a comparable steel panel.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
GlasArmor™ thermoset panels are constructed
from layers of 0°/90° woven E-glass fiber
reinforcements with a proprietary resin system.
ThermoBallistic™
thermoplastic panels are thermally formed
with layers of 0°/90° unidirectional E-glass fiber
reinforcements with polyolefin-based resin systems
and are available for protection to UL 752 level 3.

Q11: Carbon Black and Titanium Dioxide (TiO2) show up as carcinogenic hazards on some of our SDSs, and
not on others.
In other cases, PolyOne has been advised by the suppliers of certain raw materials (carbon black and
titanium dioxide are two prime examples) that the classification of their materials as IARC category 2B
carcinogens are based on certain studies involving rats, and due to a toxicological phenomenon known as
“rat lung overload,” carcinogenicity seen in such rats is not believed to be extended to humans.
