Abstract:
An interactive thermal insulating system of the present invention includes at least three layers. The first layer is a high density layer comprising a substrate is coated with a polymer binder in which a plurality of microspheres containing a phase change material are dispersed. The second layer is a low density fibrous mesh in which individual fibers contai n a plurality of microspheres containing a phase change material dispersed therein. A third layer is a flexible substrate. The fibrous mesh is sandwich ed between the coated layer and the third layer. The layers are bonded together by stitching at regular intervals, lamination, or other methods of connectio n. Most preferably, the phase change materials contained in the microspher es include paraffinic hydrocarbons.
Abstract:
The invention relates to a multi-component fiber having enhanced reversible thermal properties. The multi-component fiber comprises a fiber body formed from a plurality of elongated members, at least one of the elongated members having a temperature regulating material dispersed therein. The temperature regulating material comprises a phase change material. The multi-component fiber may be used or incorporated in various articles and applications where a thermal regulating property is desired. For example, the multi-component fiber may be used in textiles, apparel, footwear, medical products, containers and packagings, buildings, appliances, and other products.
