Abstract: This research work concerned testing the effect of ageing processes (real-time and accelerated ) on the usage properties and safety of ballistic inserts made of a polyethylene sheet called Dyneema® UD SB21 (for soft ballistic inserts). The effect of the ageing process was verified by the assessment of ballistic and mechanical properties. Changes in the structure of the materials tested were estimated with differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR).
