For protective clothing that needs to be worn for a long time, such as firefighter clothing or chemical protective clothing, how does the breathability of Filmed Non-woven Fabric help reduce the wearer's heat load and improve the comfort and safety of wearing?
For protective clothing that needs to be worn for a long time, such as firefighter clothing or chemical protective clothing, the breathability of Filmed Non-woven Fabric plays an important role in reducing the wearer's heat load and improving the comfort and safety of wearing. The following is a specific analysis:
The importance of breathability:
Breathability refers to the ability of a material to allow gas (such as water vapor) to pass through. For protective clothing, breathability determines the efficiency of heat and water vapor discharge from the wearer's body.
In high temperature or high-intensity working environments, the wearer's body will sweat a lot and produce a lot of water vapor. If the protective clothing has poor breathability and the water vapor cannot be discharged in time, it will cause heat accumulation in the wearer's body, increase the heat load, and seriously affect the wearer's comfort and health.
Filmed Non-woven Fabric Breathability:
Filmed Non-woven Fabric usually adds one or more layers of film between the fiber layers through a special process to improve the protective performance. However, this film layer must maintain a certain breathability to ensure the comfort and safety of the wearer.
Modern technology has made it possible to achieve microporation of the film layer, which allows water vapor molecules to pass through while preventing the penetration of liquids, gases or particles. This design makes Filmed Non-woven Fabric have both excellent protective performance and good breathability.
How breathability helps reduce heat load and improve comfort:
Due to the good breathability of Filmed Non-woven Fabric, water vapor in the wearer's body can be discharged through the micropores, reducing heat accumulation and thus reducing heat load.
Reducing heat load can reduce the wearer's body temperature and heart rate, reduce fatigue and improve work efficiency. At the same time, keeping the body dry also helps to improve the wearer's comfort.
In emergency situations, such as fire or chemical leaks, reducing heat load and improving comfort are essential to keep the wearer awake and responsive, thereby improving safety.
Balance between breathability and protection:
When designing Filmed Non-woven Fabric, it is necessary to consider the balance between breathability and protection. Too high breathability may reduce protection, while too low breathability will affect the comfort and safety of the wearer.
Therefore, manufacturers need to select appropriate materials and processes according to specific application scenarios and needs to achieve the best combination of breathability and protection.
The breathability of Filmed Non-woven Fabric plays an important role in reducing the heat load of wearers who wear protective clothing for a long time and improving comfort and safety. By selecting appropriate materials and processes, a balance between breathability and protection can be achieved to provide better protection for the wearer.
