History In the 1960s, Paul Kopsch an Ohio coroner , Daniel Turcos a police sergeant , and Donald Ward Kopsch s special investigator , began experimenting with special purpose handgun ammunition. Their objective was to develop a law enforcement round capable of improved penetration against hard targets, such as windshield glass and automobile doors. Conventional bullets, made primarily from lead, often Terminal ballistics become deformed and less effective after striking hard targets, especially when fired at handgun velocities. The inventors named their company KTW, after their initials. After some experimentation with sintered tungsten tungsten alloy rounds, which were eventually abandoned due to supply and cost concerns, the inventors settled on a bullet consisting mostly of hardened brass with a steel core. In testing, the bullets wore out barrels far more quickly than normal copper jacketed lead rounds, since they did not deform to fit the rifling. ref name History Of Federal Ammunition Law . . . http www.nraila.org Issues FactSheets Read.aspx?ID 55 ref In an effort to reduce barrel wear, the bullets were then coated with a layer of Teflon.

unreferenced date July 2008 Glass coating is a process invented in 1924 by G. F. Taylor and converted into production machine by Ulitovski for producing fine glass coated metal Electrical filament filament s only a few micrometre s in diameter . In this process, known as the Taylor wire or microwire process or Taylor Ulitovski process , the metal to be produced in microwire form is held in a glass tube, typically a borosilicate composition, which is closed at one end. This end of the tube is then heated in order to soften the glass to a temperature at which the metal part is in liquid state and the glass can be drawn down to produce a fine glass capillary containing a metal core. In recent years When date August 2011 the process was converted to continuous one by continuously feeding the metal drop with new material. Clarify date August 2011 Metal cores in the range 1 to 120 micrometre s with a glass coating a few micrometres in diameter can be readily produced by this method. Glass coated microwires successfully produced by this method include copper , silver , gold , iron , platinum , and various alloy compositions. It has even proved possible to produce amorphous metal glassy metal cores because the cooling rate achievable by this process can be of the order of 1,000,000 kelvin s per second. Applications for microwire include miniature electrical components based on copper cored microwire. Amorphous metal cores with special magnet ic properties can even be employed in such articles as security tag s and related devices. Cobalt and iron base alloys are used to produce antishoplifting labels and security papers.
