SPECIAL FEATURES
- Extremely lightweight, flexible, and thin material.
- High tensile strength and fracture toughness make it incredibly resistant to kinetic damage.
- Unable to be detected by most scanning systems, including metal detectors, thus enhancing stealth.
- Lightweight, thin, and flexible, ShadowScale is versatile-enough to use in various textiles and armors without sacrificing freedom of movement.
- Its inherent toughness makes it exceptionally resilient against kinetic damage.
- Stealth-enhancing Reflec Polymer makes detection almost impossible to most scanners, including metal detectors.
- Highly-conductive, unlike graphene aerogel, the auxetic-gyroid lattice is highly-conductive. Wearing this without proper insulation can result in serious injury, even death.
- Also conducts heat, requiring thinsuit or similar underlayer to protect against heat-stroke; despite high-melting points, its ability to absorb and retain heat can - if exposed high, prolonged heat - cause serious injury, even death.
- Stealth-enhancement only applies to areas covered by the material.
- It will only protect so far against high-powered slugthrowers, railguns, or similar high-powered projectile weapons, explosions, etc. and should only be worn with a padded underlay.
Using precision 3-D printing processes, an auxetic-gyroid lattice of graphene is constructed, which gives this ultra-light, ultra-thin materials impressive resistance against kinetic damage, making the ideal choice for body armor, high-risk sports and similar activities, or construction of lightweight armors. With variable color, high-flexibility, and lightweight quality, it is adaptable to a variety of clothing, armor, or other uses.
However, serious or prolonged exposure to electricity or thermal attacks could have disastrous results without appropriate insulation. Reflec used in this material coupled with its non-metallic nature makes it very easy to wear past sensors, or to carry something past them, meaning only the most advanced scanners will detect its presence or pierce its protective 'shell' capabilities.
