British scientists say they have developed a new material called Armourgel that could help protect older adults from breaking bones when they fall. Scientists say it is soft enough to be put in normal everyday clothing.
As people get older, many of them develop the disease osteoporosis（骨質疏松癥）．It makes their bones so weak that even a minor fall can cause a bone to break．In some cases, older adults can die from breaking bones or from problems resulting from them．
Armourgel is a combination of two new man-made materials．These materials quickly take in or absorb energy when they hit something, this protects whatever is behind the material．
"It's soft and flowable so it moves with the musculature of the body but when you impact it, it momentarily goes rigid,"（僵硬的）said Daniel Plant, the leading researcher, and his team  have joined the material with a substance whose cells collapse when they are hit．
Daniel Plant says, it is the combination of these materials that makes Armourgel special．The new product is said to be much thinner than other protective materials currently being sold．
However, “Bone protectors, no matter how good, are not the best solution．"The key is to prevent the bones from losing their mineral content, staying healthy．And then even if you fall, you won't break your bone," said Gambert．
