Abstract
In modern physics and fabrication technology, simulation of projectile and target collision is vital to improve design in some critical applications, like; bulletproofing and medical applications. Graphene, the most prominent member of two dimensional materials presents ultrahigh tensile strength and stiffness. Moreover, polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) is one of the most important elastomeric materials with a high extensive application area, ranging from medical, fabric, and interface material. In this work we considered graphene/PDMS structures to explore the bullet resistance of resulting nanocomposites. To this aim, extensive molecular dynamic simulations were carried out to identify the penetration of bullet through the graphene and PDMS composite structures. In this paper, we simulate the impact of a diamond bullet with different velocities on the composites made of single- or bi-layer graphene placed in different positions of PDMS polymers. The underlying mechanism concerning how the PDMS improves the resistance of graphene against impact loading is discussed. We discuss that with the same content of graphene, placing the graphene in between the PDMS result in enhanced bullet resistance. This work comparatively examines the enhancement in design of polymer nanocomposites to improve their bulletproofing response and the obtained results may serve as valuable guide for future experimental and theoretical studies.
