India Bullet-Resistant Glass Market Driven By Increasing Expenditure on Military and Defense Sector

Image
  Bullet-resistant glass is an extremely tough and optically clear material that is especially resistant to penetration by bullets. Bulletproof glass varies in thickness from 3⁄4 to 3 1⁄2 inches. Just like any other protective material, however, it is not 100% impenetrable. It's usually made from a mixture of a couple of different kinds of glass, usually one hard and one softer. This mix gives the product its name. It can withstand a large amount of force, such as that which would be directed at it, and still remain intact. Pricing for bullet resistant flat glass can start from around US$ 25.00 per sq. ft. to over US$ 100.00 per sq. ft. India bullet-resistant glass market is driven by increasing expenditure on the military and defense sector in the country.

Using Two Different Laser Cladding Materials Increases Ductility of Joint and Avoids Formation of Cracks

Image
  Laser cladding refers to a surface modification technique widely used in industrial applications such as rapid manufacturing, parts repair, surface coating, and innovative alloy development. It involves the feeding of a stream of metallic powder or wire into a melt pool that is generated by a laser beam as it scans across the target. Laser cladding can be used to increase corrosion resistance, wear resistance or impact performance of metallic components, using a method of applying a fully dense, metallurgically bonded and virtually pure coating. Laser cladding materials with different lasers have been used: high power diode laser (848 nm), Nd:Yag laser (1064 nm), CO2 laser (10.64 µm), and excimer laser (248 nm). It is quite different from traditional welding or fusion bonding as a means to permanently bind the metals together by means of high-energy laser beams. Instead, it is usually achieved by injecting two metallic materials through a cryogenic chamber and then pressing or...
