Embodiment Construction

[0022] Materials that respond to moisture are used in many applications in the textile industry. For example, in modern urban environments, people are constantly moving between hot and humid environments and air-conditioned buildings.

[0023] Such a lifestyle makes it difficult to be comfortable in all conditions, as different clothing is suitable for different environments. People have been known to feel particularly uncomfortable when they feel hot and sweaty from walking. People are more uncomfortable with wet clothes than they are with temperature. The present invention provides a fabric that is breathable when wet and warm when dry. This is the opposite of how most natural fibers react. Natural fibers tend to swell when wet, giving them more bulk. This makes it less breathable than when dry, as the fibers expand into the spaces between the yarns, making the spaces smaller and thus making it harder for moisture vapor to pass through the fabric.

[0024] In particular...

Abstract

A material has as elements, a plurality of activatable elements each having a portion fixed relative to the material and a portion free to deform relative to the material.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a material, for example, having activatable elements that deform when activated. Background technique [0002] EP1801274, titled "Woven / Knit fabric including crimped fiber and becoming rugged upon humidification, process for producing the same, and textile product (knitted / woven fabric containing crimped fiber that shows concavo-convex through wetting, and its manufacturing method and textile product )" discloses a crimped fiber product that can be woven or knitted into a fabric that increases in roughness when wetted with water. The product dries with reduced curl. The fibers are bicomponent and the two components respond differently to ambient humidity. When wet, the curl of the fibers increases, making the surface of the fabric rougher. This changes the properties of the fabric. However, this physical change in fabric properties has limited applications. Contents of the invention [0003] The invention is set forth in...
