No, Kevlar is a para-aramid synthetic fiber. Basically a really really tough cloth-like material. Polycarbonate products, such as Lexan windows, are very hard and rigid. They can be molded to fit a specific application but are not flexible like Kevlar is.

No, Kevlar is not a polycarbonate. Kevlar is a synthetic fiber while polycarbonate is a type of thermoplastic polymer. Kevlar is typically used in body armor and protective gear due to its high strength and heat resistance.
