Therefore, for the role of the helmet, in order to play a protective role, it needs to have its production process, structural requirements and material requirements. Currently widely used materials include PP, PC, ABS and carbon fiber. These materials are mainly used in the helmet shell, that is, the outer shell; under the outer shell is the EPS buffer layer, commonly known as foam, which is mostly used in black materials; In addition to EPS, there is also an inner lining to achieve the effect of sweat absorption and ventilation; plus various necessary functional parts, such as straps, ear protectors, goggles, etc.
