Why don't they make bulletproof vests etc. out of diamond if it is the hardest metal?
Because it's too heavy. 1 gram of diamond weighs something like 15 grams.
Would cost too much.
>>675420867
because theyre way too expensive
>>675420953
Wuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut
>>675420867
Because it may be hard, but its brittle as fuck. A plate of diamond would shatter and the bullet would go right through.

>>675420953
Lel made me reply
They make diamond fused stakes and hammers or whatever so it could probally be possible.
Its not really practical though considering those vests already do the job for a much cheaper orice and you can actually move in it. This isnt the middle ages, man. No one wants a bulky suit of heavy armor on thier chest. They want flexible and light.

actual cost should be calculated by the cost to mine them, or the cost to seize them from the diamond companies. which is much less than trillions.

The diamond companies own all the diamonds in the world, and can construct suits of armor from them. Seizing the diamonds would be extremely difficult due to this.

Butane must be delicious for you to be constantly ingesting it like that
It's because diamond is extremely brittle, Kevlar absorbs the impact by compressing with the impact and cushioning it. If you shot a diamond the bullet would go right through it and the diamond would shatter

>>675427865
sauce?
>>675438060
Although they are hard, diamonds are brittle because of their crystalline structure. A bullet would cause the diamond to shatter, causing fragments to injure the victim more. Diamond isn't a metal anyway.
>>675438060
No, than is correct

>You wot? You think a plate of diamond would shatter when a bullet struck it?
Yes.
Diamond has cleavage planes.
you can split a diamond with a hammer, with one careful tap.
Hardness does not equal strength
Hardness can be measured in several scales, one is the Brinell Hardness scale.
Lead has a hardness of about 5 HB (Hardness Brinell)
Copper? About 35 HB
Mild Steel? About 120 HB.
Hardened Tool Steel? About 600-900HB
Glass? About 1,500HB.
Would you pick glass to make an Abrams tank out of, because its twice as hard as tool steel? No. Welcome to material sciences.

>>675420953
sides are kill
I think the best way to explain it to someone who hasn't really done too many physics classes is:
Imagine that there are two diving boards, both 20 metres high. One stands above a foam pit, the other over an empty pool (essentially a concrete slab/the ground). You can jump off either, which one would you pick?
Straight away you'd pick the foam pit if you aren't a whiny an hero faggot. Now, you will hit both the concrete floor and the top of the foam pit at the same speed. The foam pit will save you as it essentially allows the force of you hitting the ground to act over a far longer period of time. The concrete slab will either kill you or really injure you because the force (you) was stopped abruptly.
Same can be said for the diamond. Imagine that a standard ballistic vest is a foam pit and a diamond one is the concrete slab. The diamond one would easily be able to stop a bullet but all of that force would be distributed through you essentially instantaneously. A standard ballistic vest has a bit of "give" allowing for a longer period of time for the force acting over you.
>>675443753
Yep, OP thinks that a $10 Million dollar diamond vest would be better than a couple thousand in Kevlar.

>>675443902
Ex-fucking-actly!
When someone is shot while wearing a bullet proof vest, they still receive a nasty bruise from where the bullet struck the vest. It also depends upon the type of round being used. Fragmenting bullets break apart when fired, acting like buck shot or bird shot. Being struck by multiple small projectiles allows for the force of impact to be dissipated. A solid round carries all of its force.
Either way, bullet proof vests work fine as they are and don't require some autist to improve them with diamond plates.
