AI Technical Summary
Existing waterproof and breathable e-PTFE membrane materials used in outdoor jackets are banned due to their PFAS content, resulting in insufficient breathability in extreme environments, excessive heat buildup, and impact on physiological comfort. It is difficult to improve thermal and moisture balance while ensuring durability and high-efficiency protection.
The jacket fabric features a thermal and moisture-comfortable microporous sandwich structure, consisting of a bottom layer, an outer layer, and a middle layer. The bottom layer uses 30D yarn, the middle layer uses a two-component polypropylene microporous membrane, and the outer layer uses 30D N66 double-line grid. These layers are connected through a hot-melt composite process to form a dense double-line grid structure. The microporous membrane in the middle layer has high porosity and a staggered three-dimensional structure, which improves breathability and moisture permeability.
While maintaining high waterproof performance, it improves thermal and moisture comfort, with a breathability of 0.89mm/s, a moisture permeability of ≥7000g/m²·24h, and a moisture resistance of 11.4m²·Pa/W. It achieves thermal and moisture balance in extreme environments and enhances the physiological comfort of outdoor sports.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of fabric technology, specifically to a thermal and moisture-comfortable microporous sandwich structure windbreaker fabric. Background Technology
[0002] The main protective properties of outdoor jacket materials lie in their high abrasion resistance, waterproof performance, and breathability, easily handling unpredictable weather conditions during travel. Windproofing and warmth are primarily determined by waterproof performance, such as the new national standard GB / T32614-2023, which requires Class I outdoor jackets to have a water pressure of no less than 6000 mmH2O before and after washing, and a breathability of no less than 6000 G / m2 / 24h before and after washing. Sandwich technology solutions are mainly used, including hydrophilic TPE waterproof and breathable membranes (such as PU, TPU, TPEE, etc.) and hydrophobic e-PTFE and ePE waterproof and breathable membranes. Hydrophilic TPE material is the mainstream product on the market, and its waterproof and breathable performance meets the basic performance requirements of the national standard, but it suffers from poor breathability and rapid heat buildup during strenuous activity, leading to overheating. Two-component ePE waterproof and breathable membranes offer better thermal and moisture comfort than TPE material, but they still do not solve the problem of breathability under low air pressure. Disadvantages: Currently, e-PTFE membrane material offers the best waterproof, breathable, and low-pressure performance in the field of outdoor protective clothing. However, its high PFAS content has led to its gradual ban by the industry and government. Breakthroughs are urgently needed to address the current issues of excessive protection and insufficient physiological comfort (breathability and moisture resistance) in outdoor clothing. Even in extreme travel environments, maintaining proper temperature control and avoiding overheating, while ensuring durability and high-efficiency protection, has become a crucial safeguard for outdoor enthusiasts.

[0017] Please see Figures 1-3 The present invention discloses a thermal and moisture-comfortable microporous sandwich structure windbreaker fabric, comprising a fabric body, which includes a bottom layer 1, a middle layer 2, and a top layer 3, and is composed of a sandwich structure. The bottom layer 1 is made of 30D yarn, which helps to improve the skin-friendly feel.
[0018] The intermediate layer 2 is made of two-component polypropylene microporous membrane material, and the surface layer 3 is made of 30D N66 double-line grid.
[0019] The surface layer 3 is woven from the first weft 31, the second weft 32 and the warp 33. The first weft 31, the second weft 32 and the warp 33 are all 30D / 34F nylon 66 dull high elastic yarn. The warp 33 interweaves with the first weft 31 to form the second weft point 35 and interweaves with the second weft 32 to form the first weft point 34. The first weft point 34 and the second weft point 35 are arranged alternately in an up-down manner to form a dense double-line grid structure. The finished warp and weft density of the surface layer 3 is 660*560T / 10CM.
[0020] The intermediate layer 2 is a two-component polypropylene microporous membrane made of polypropylene and polyethylene blend. Its porosity is 65-75%, the average pore size is 150nm, and it has a staggered three-dimensional structure.
[0021] The bottom layer 1, the middle layer 2, and the top layer 3 are connected by a hot melt composite process.
[0022] The fabric itself has a water pressure resistance of ≥10000mmH2O.
[0023] The moisture permeability of the fabric itself is ≥7000g / m²·24h.
[0024] The fabric itself has an air permeability of 0.89 mm / s.
[0025] The fabric itself has a wet resistance of 11.4 m²·Pa / W. In the general comfort range for sports, 6 ≤ wet resistance ≤ 13.
[0026] The working principle of the above-mentioned thermal and moisture-comfort microporous sandwich structure for windbreaker fabric is as follows: During use, the fabric itself provides high-strength abrasion resistance and tear resistance through the 30D N66 double-line grid of the surface layer 3. The bicomponent polypropylene microporous membrane material of the middle layer 2 has a nano-level staggered pore structure that combines hydrophobicity and high porosity, achieving efficient rain protection, high moisture permeability and breathability under low air pressure. The 30D voile yarn of the bottom layer 1 enhances the skin-friendly feel. The three are thermally melted together to ensure waterproof and windproof properties in extreme environments, while the low moisture resistance allows for rapid heat and moisture removal during strenuous exercise, achieving a balance between protection and thermal and moisture comfort.
[0027] This invention provides a thermal and moisture-comfort microporous sandwich structure for windbreakers by improving the fabric. It uses a two-component polypropylene microporous membrane material to optimize and innovate the breathability and moisture permeability, while maintaining the breathability of the material under micro-pressure and improving thermal and moisture comfort.
