The main requirements for life vests (buoyancy, durability, light weight, resistance to sea water and petrochemicals etc.) are met due to the right choice of materials for the outer parts of the articles. The current article presents some findings of the research into the main physical and mechanical properties of materials for outer parts of life vests designed for physically challenged people. On the basis of the research the authors have grounded the selection of materials to meet the requirements of the existing regulatory and technical documentation for the production of textiles of the relevant range.
