It took a few searches, but I found these useful and relevant:

"Bulletproof with Hemp" https://culturemagazine.com/bulletproof-with-hemp/

> Naturally Advanced Technologies is a company that takes hemp fibers and treats them with a patented enzymatic solution that further enhances their already protective qualities by making the final material softer and thinner than silk, but stronger and lighter. This material, called Crailar, can also be converted into plastic materials similar to the kind Henry Ford’s famous Model T Ford was made of.
