- Slide: 1
- hey, dude, you new to this prison right. lets get one thing straight, this is a dangerous place, you'll need to stay safe
- like how tho?. you want me to dodge all of their bullets and punches
- dude, where's your Kevlar
- What's that?
- YOU DONT KNOW WHAT KEVLAR I-...its fine, go talk to mike in the graveyard, he'll have some and he knows a thing or 2 about it
- Slide: 2
- Yeah sure, i got some. trust me, this things tougher than anything out there. it stops bullets, knifes and its so strong they even use it in car brakes, car tires and buildings
- Hey, got any Kevlar for me? mike said you'd have some
- it's all in it's chemical structure really. it forms tiny straight rods which are packed together, and it can form hydrogen bonds which are super super strong forces between molecules
- incredible.. how's this stuff even made. must be pretty complicated right
- go ask David at the prisons door, he's the one who actually makes the stuff

- hey, micheal told me to talk to you about how kevlars made. this thing is a fiber, it's gotta be woven and stuff too right. and by the way, it's amazing, he was telling me all about it
- now i'll tell you about how it's made. it's pretty simple really. you just take 2 reactants, an ammonia like substance, which is NH3 by the way, and mix it with a carbon based acid. we call that a condensation reaction, and the precipitate that forms is the raw Kevlar. then we force a hot, concentrated solution of it through a spinneret to spin it into fibers.

- WOAH... but, how's this thing so strong in the first place
