The relevance of the work lies in the need to create ultralight durable materials for mine protection structures for military vehicles, boats and mobile equipment, boats and mobile protective structures. That’s why we created a material consisting of porous aluminum and polymer, as these components have a low specific gravity, high mechanical properties, and are widely available. The result is a lightweight and durable material that can protect against debris impact.
