Cikk tartalma röviden
A new super-polymer developed in London aims to enhance safety in rugby by absorbing energy to reduce concussions and head injuries. Unlike American football, rugby players do not wear helmets, making concussions a significant concern. The company RHEON has created a non-Newtonian material that stiffens upon impact, potentially lowering peak rotational acceleration by 34%. Centurion Safety has partnered with RHEON to introduce this technology, which is currently being tested by youth players and is expected to launch soon.
