Dr. Benjamin Martin is awarded NSF-CAREER Award  | The Texas State Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry in action!"Protecting America's Heroes" Flying low-level combat missions has always been a dangerous undertaking. Texas State professors Dr. Chad Booth and Dr. Gary Beall are working to change that. With an intial donation of a patent from Shell Chemical Company, Booth and Beall have developed a new transparent ballistic polymer that is 30-50% stronger than current materials. This added level of protection is being fitted into the canopies of Cobra attack heliocopters for use in Iraq. Thanks to the work of these two stellar scientists, more of our nations heroes will be returning home.
