I have been having a bit of a look around for some material to make various recovery items from, such as 'chute protectors, deployment bags, shock cord sleeves etc., and came across an eBay seller (thanks to this thread) selling Nomex cloth (6oz), as well as a Kevlar/PBI blend cloth (4.5oz).
My question is:
Does anyone know how the two materials compare with one and other with regards to how effective they will shield or protect recovery components from heat or burning particles? Whilst the Kevlar/PBI cloth is lighter, would it be more effective, or is heavier Nomex the way to go?
Thanks in advance.
