On April 16, 2023, a racing accident occurred in a racing town in Heilongjiang. At that time, a racing driver lost control of the vehicle and rushed out of the track in an instant while driving, and the driver unfortunately died. Automobile parts were scattered at the scene, and the casing was seriously deformed, which shows the impact.

It is understood that the racer is still an online celebrity racer who is often active on the Internet. The occurrence of this accident has made many people feel sorry for it, and it has also made more and more racers pay attention to the safety factor of the car.

As we all know, racing is a high-risk sport with fast speed and complicated routes. The participating drivers need very professional skills and a good attitude to deal with various unexpected situations. In such an environment, safety is one of the most important factors, and the head is one of the most vulnerable parts of the human body. Once it receives a huge impact, it will seriously endanger life.

In recent years, the emergence of ACF bionic cartilage supermaterials has provided drivers with more reliable protection. ACF bionic cartilage supermaterial has the advantages of extreme cushioning and strong protection. The protective performance of artificial cartilage protective helmets made of ACF materials is 30-40% higher than that of ordinary safety helmets.

ACF Artificial Cartilage Protective Helmet

Ordinary materials generally absorb energy through compression deformation, while ACF converts more than 90% of the impact energy into heat energy instantly through energy conversion. 1MM ACF has better absorption than 10MM EVA, rubber, latex, PU and other materials. can effect.

The reason is that ACF is a special structural material. It is a kind of vegetable oil cartilage developed after six years of tens of thousands of experiments based on polymer chemistry, mechanics, bionics, and mathematics. It has a "three-dimensional ultrastructure "The biomimetic cartilage metamaterial. The principle is to imitate and optimize human cartilage tissue to show soft and comfortable characteristics under the condition of no force; when the force is applied, the protein molecules flow to absorb energy and convert 97.1% of the kinetic energy into inconspicuous heat energy, reaching The high-efficiency cushioning and energy-absorbing effect is the highest protection level among the current cushioning and energy-absorbing protection products.

Therefore, ACF is not simply a breakthrough in formula and process, but a revolutionary breakthrough in mechanism.

In addition to protective helmets, ACF Soft Valley Laboratory has also developed a series of body protective equipment, such as shoulder pads, back pads, chest pads, elbow pads, hip pads, cervical spine pads and knee pads, to provide the highest level of protection for racers.

If the high-level protection brings peace of mind to capable people, then the lightweight design can bring comfort and fit. ACF material does not need to use too thick material to achieve efficient protection, so it can reduce the weight and space of the material, and reduce the heavy and cumbersome feeling of wearing.

Not only in the field of racing, ACF bionic cartilage supermaterial helmets are also widely used in the field of motorcycles. In short, the invention and wide application of ACF bionic cartilage metamaterials provide a great security guarantee for the field of racing and cycling.

ACF, let protective gear support life!
