Micro-perforated temperature regulating fabrics, garments and articles having improved softness, flexibility, breathability and moisture vapor transport properties

摘要

A temperature-regulating fabric, such as a relatively flexible cloth or textile sheet, a relatively flexible foam sheet, a relatively flexible film, a relatively flexible plastic sheet, a relatively flexible paper, or a relatively flexible leather includes a continuous coating on at least one side thereof that contains one or more phase change materials or micro-encapsulated phase change materials. Micro-perforations are formed in this continuous coating to improve the softness, flexibility, breathability and moisture transport properties of the fabric and of garments or articles that are made using the fabric.
