What alloy/metal should I use on my armor plating?
I am constructing a light weight metallic suit that will be flame resistant, bullet poof and obviously slash proof. I am having a problem with seperation of the plates and the fact that after being shot several times the plates begin to fracture. I am using 98.5% titanium alloy plating that is about 2.5" thick. Should I try a different alloy or metal? and what can I do about seperation of the plates, without gaps there is no flexibility.
Forget metal
You want Kevlar or some sort of Aramid Fibre reinforced material
With the proper weave you can get maximum stopping power while still maintaining flexibility
EDIT: well you dont neccasarily have to forget metal but definetly composites are the way to go.
Try glass fibre reinforced aluminium. It very rigid but also very strong, should allow you to cut the thickness of your plates right down
