British engineer invents anti-injury polymer liner

Release date: 2008-04-14

In 2008, a groundbreaking innovation emerged from the UK — a flexible polymer material called d3o, designed to protect the body from impact and injury. Developed by British engineer Richard Palmer, this unique material is cut into custom-sized sheets and integrated into clothing. When worn, it acts as a protective layer around vital joints and organs, offering a level of safety that feels almost like having superpowers.

D3o is made from a special type of polymer that behaves similarly to wet sand mixed with cornstarch and water. It has an unusual property: when you move quickly or apply force, it becomes rigid and solid, but when left alone, it returns to its soft, pliable state. This "smart" material reacts to movement, making it ideal for use in sports gear, military equipment, and even everyday protective clothing.

What makes d3o truly remarkable is its ability to remain flexible and non-restrictive. The material is composed of hundreds of tiny, soft "cells" that conform to the body’s movements. Whether you're running, rolling, or kicking, you won't feel any restriction. Its texture is similar to colorful playdough, allowing it to be molded into various shapes and used in a wide range of applications.

From sportswear and motorcycle gear to police body armor, d3o has proven to be highly versatile. It's already being used in items like wool caps for skiers and is being tested for use in police gloves to protect knuckles during high-risk situations. According to the Shanghai Medical Device Industry Association, the potential uses for this technology are virtually endless, and its impact on safety and comfort is just beginning to be realized.
