Samples coated with the material remained intact after being blasted by a weapons-grade laser beam for 15 seconds with a power density of 500 watts per sq cm – far more intense that what is required to destroy an unprotected ballistic missile.
在被武器级激光束以每平方厘米500瓦的能量密度轰击15秒后，涂有这种材料的样品仍然完好无损——这一能量密度比摧毁一枚未受保护的弹道导弹所需的能量密度要高得多。

To put that into perspective, a three megawatt laser weapon could theoretically intercept an incoming missile with power density on the target of just 300 watts per sq cm, according to scientists.
根据这些科学家的说法，从这个角度来看，一个3兆瓦的激光武器理论上可以通过在目标上施加能量密度仅为每平方厘米300瓦的能量，就能拦截一枚来袭导弹。

In their experiment, the researchers applied 2.5mm (0.1 inch) of coating that was mostly made of boron phenolic resin (BPR), a composite material widely used in hot and high-stress environments.

BPR is also inexpensive. In recent years, the average price of the resin has dropped to as low as seven yuan (US$1) per kg (2.2 pounds), according to industrial data in China.
BPR也不贵。根据中国的工业数据，近年来，这种树脂的平均价格已降至每公斤(2.2磅)7元人民币(1美元)。

But a laser energy beam – focused and intense enough – could burn a hole through a traditional BPR coating in just a few seconds, the team said.

@John C. carbon base foam or starlite is able to withstand extreme heat. laser damage is not mechanical but extreme focus heat. so the solution make sense. defending against laser is either reflect/deflect out the laser or having heat resistant coating.
@John C. 碳基泡沫或星晶石能够承受极端高温。激光损伤不是机械性的，而是极端聚焦产生的热量。所以这个解决方案说得通。防御激光要么反射/偏转激光，要么有耐热涂层。
@Simon H. Material science is advancing rapidly. What you have learned just a few years ago May be useless today.. I used to have an Apple 2 plus also not that long ago. Laser is just a source of energy. Whether anything would be resistant to it depends on the intensity and the wave length. There are maby kinds of lasers and thus this was a silly boast: Given enough heat, anything would melt or get vaporized.
@Simon H. 材料科学正在迅速发展。几年前你学到的东西，今天可能毫无用处。不久前我也用过苹果2 plus。激光只是一种能源。是否有东西能抵抗它取决于它的强度和波长。激光可能有很多种，因此这是一个愚蠢的吹牛新闻：只要有足够的热量，任何东西都会融化或蒸发。

Indeed, in 2007, we saw similar comments as here, before China pulled a surprise stunt on the US. Daily Mail : ''American military chiefs have been left dumbstruck by an undetected Chinese submarine popping up at the heart of a recent Pacific exercise and close to the vast U.S.S. Kitty Hawk - a 1,000ft supercarrier with 4,500 personnel on board. By the time it surfaced the 160ft Song Class diesel-electric attack submarine is understood to have sailed within viable range for launching torpedoes or missiles at the carrier. According to senior Nato officials the incident caused consternation in the U.S. Navy.''
事实上，在2007年，我们看到了类似的评论，然后中国对美国进行了一次出人意料的表演。《每日邮报》:“一艘未被发现的中国潜艇突然出现在最近一次太平洋演习的中心位置，并靠近巨大的美国小鹰号航母，这是一艘1000英尺长的超级航母，载有4500名人员。到浮出水面时，这艘160英尺的宋级柴电攻击潜艇被认为已经航行在可攻击范围内，可以向航母发射鱼雷或导弹。据北约高级官员称，这一事件引起了美国海军的恐慌。”
PLA scientists are giving their very best indeed.
解放军的科学家们确实尽了最大的努力。
US had spent hundreds of billions to develop a very powerful weapon system that can zap aircrafts out of the sky. All those investments come to zero outcome now. China revelation of this cheap and readily available adhesive, so that other countries can use on their drones and other aircrafts to counter US laser weapon systems.
美国已经花费了数千亿美元来开发一种非常强大的武器系统，可以将飞机从空中击落。而这些投资现在毫无成果。中国公布了这种廉价易得的粘合剂，以便其他国家可以在无人机和其他飞机上使用，以对抗美国的激光武器系统。

@Tim H. Is it the sign of ignorance of science and technology?
@Tim H. 这是对科学技术无知的表现吗?
This was always the achilles heel of laser based weapons. Lasers require time to heat up the target they are trying to destroy. You only have to insulate a missile to survive a laser for a second or two to get by it. Lasers might be good against slow moving drones but never for a high speed missile.
这一直是激光武器的致命弱点。激光需要时间来加热它们试图摧毁的目标。而只需要让导弹在激光照射下隔热一两秒钟就能通过它。激光可能对缓慢移动的无人机有用，但对高速导弹却没用。
Best for PRC is to hide new inventions weapon from US intel. This could be very useful.
对中国来说，最好是把新发明的武器藏起来，不让美国知道。这可能非常有用。
Oops, there it is!!

No wonder the US is getting bankrupt. A $1 glue can stop a multi-million dollar laser weapon from the American military.

@Michael L. 为什么保守派要改变现有秩序……从定义上讲，他们是保守的，因此会抵制对现有秩序的改变。
It reminds me of US developing a million dollar pen for space while the Russian uses pencil.
这让我想起美国为太空开发了价值100万美元的钢笔，而俄罗斯用的是铅笔。
But writing with pencil has never been good to keep record. No one accepts a document signed by pencil. The US strives for the best and researches are often costly. However that's how we ended up with computer we can wear on our wrist because the miniaturization of components and chips as a side benefit. Russia has no choice but to use primative tools like its tanks and planes . The US can afford to spend a million because it can.I do believevhiwevet that there have been a lot of wasteful spending in the US defense industry .
但是用铅笔书写从来不是适合记录的保留。没有人接受用铅笔签名的文件。美国追求最好的，研究往往是昂贵的。然而，这就是我们最终可以戴在手腕上的电脑的原因，因为组件和芯片的小型化是一个附带的好处。俄罗斯别无选择，只能使用坦克和飞机等原始工具。美国能负担得起100万美元，因为它有这个能力。但我确实认为美国国防工业有很多浪费的开支。
another case of Soviet unx's pencil vs. US NASA space pen?
苏联铅笔 vs 美国宇航局太空笔的又一案例?
And how the Soviets, with their pencils, were 'erased'. LOL.
以及苏联人是如何跟他们的铅笔一起被“擦掉”的。哈哈。
The article fails to take into account various factors. They tests against a 500-watt per square cm laser for only 15 seconds and questions its ability to stop it. However, if the US Navy 300-kilowatt laser focuses its diameter on a 10 cm radius, it would emit 3800 watts per square cm for a longer duration than 15 seconds. Would the material withstand such an intense beam? the upcoming 1-megawatt laser with a 10 cm diameter focus, it would emit 12700 watts per square cm.... boron phenolic resin, though touted for its heat resistance, may not be practically effective in combat situations
这篇文章没有考虑到各种因素。他们对每平方厘米500瓦的激光的测试仅持续了15秒，就质疑其能力，从而否定它。然而，如果美国海军300千瓦的激光器将其照射直径聚焦在10厘米的半径上，每平方厘米的发射功率为3800瓦，持续时间超过15秒。这种材料能承受如此强烈的光束吗? 即将问世的1兆瓦激光器，聚焦直径为10厘米，每平方厘米将发射12700瓦……硼酚醛树脂虽然因其耐热性而被吹捧，但在实际战斗情况下的效果可能并不好。

@Tluanga S. It is you who fail to understand, you can't just increase the power factor, you should also increase its adhesive factor.
@Tluanga S. 是你没搞明白，不能只增加功率因素，你还应该增加粘合剂的因素。
0 I have placed my bet on laser over adhesive boron phenolic resin (BPR). After all, it was the US who invented BPR and has extensively used it in weapons and aerospace applications. Considering the limitations of BPR, I am confident that the US military is continuously developing more powerful lasers. If lasers could be easily blocked by BPR, there would be no reason for them to invest in laser technology. In fact, China is also actively developing laser weapons...Just because you have a defense system doesn't guarantee its effectiveness in defeating laser weapons. As the current trend shows, defensive systems such as armor or adhesives have always a lower chance of effectively blocking offensive weapons because the offensive weapons can always be upgraded, whereas defensive systems may struggle to keep up with the same pace of advancement. ...This is why modern tanks equipped with active protection systems and armor still fail to block Anti-Tank Guided Missiles (ATGMs). There is no absolute solution to this challenge.
我赌注激光胜出，而不是硼酚醛树脂(BPR)粘合剂。毕竟，是美国发明了BPR，并将其广泛应用于武器和航空航天领域。考虑到BPR的局限性，我相信美国军方正在不断开发更强大的激光器。如果激光可以轻易被BPR阻挡，他们就没有理由投资激光技术了。事实上，中国也在积极发展激光武器……仅仅因为有一个防御系统并不能保证它在对抗激光武器时的有效性。正如目前的趋势所示，装甲或粘合剂等防御系统有效阻挡进攻性武器的可能性总是较低，因为进攻性武器总是可以升级的，而防御系统可能很难跟上同样的进步速度……这就是为什么配备主动防护系统和装甲的现代坦克仍然无法阻挡反坦克制导导弹的原因。这个挑战没有绝对的解决方案。
@Tluanga S. It is the discussion on the effectiveness of the laser weapons against high speed moving missiles, not about the missiles.
@Tluanga S. 本文讨论的是激光武器对抗高速移动导弹的有效性，而不是导弹本身。
@Willy X. How does adhesive factor stop the heat?

China thinks out of the box, while USA shooting balloons with billion dollar missiles LOL
中国跳出常规思维，而美国用数十亿美元的导弹打气球，哈哈。
US lasers were unable to destroy a weather balloon carried by air stream across the US sky, and with this new protective coating, US will have to award a few more billion dollar contracts to their MIC to re-design their laser weapons to defeat this new coating. Bankrupting the US made simple.... LOL.
美国的激光无法摧毁被穿越美国天空的气流带去的气象气球，而有了这种新的保护涂层，美国将不得不向他们的军工复合体授予数十亿美元的合同，重新设计他们的激光武器，以击败这种新的涂层。让美国破产很简单……哈哈。
