ABSTRACT:
A method for protecting an object from kinetic threats using a glass-ceramic is disclosed. The energy of impact is dissipated as a localized pulverization of the glass-ceramic without extensive shattering of the glass-ceramic. Further, a specific Anorthite glass-ceramic is provided and demonstrated to provide effective protection from multiple kinetic threats.
