Advanced Fabric to Keep Wearer Cool and Warm Based on Surrounding Temperature ShinshuUni fabric news nanotechnology science
Oct 12 2022Reviewed by Emily Henderson, B.Sc. This fabric can respond to varying temperatures to cool down or heat up its wearer based on the need.
An article illustrating the manufacturing method has been published in the American Chemical Society journal ACS Nano on August 10th, 2022. Such fabrics regularly utilize phase-change materials , which are capable of storing and later releasing large volumes of heat when the material shifts phase . The problem here has been that the manufacturing methods for phase-change micro-capsules are complex and very costly. Worse still, this option offers insufficient flexibility for any realistically wearable application.
Coaxial electrospinning is quite similar but requires two or more polymer solutions fed from adjacent spinnerets, enabling the manufacture of hollow or coated nanofibers. These core-and-sheath fibers have an analogous structure to the coaxial cable one might use on one’s stereo but are much smaller.
