Abstract: | Stability in a low temperature environment is needed for a textile to be used as winter wear. This research was presented the characteristics of fabrics by double-thin-layered coating with and without phase change materials (PCM) and several nano-sized inorganic particles (N-particles). Silica, Ag, Zr, and carbon types of N-particles were used for investigating the N-particles effect. For the experimental method, the PCM and N-particles were coated consecutively in the wet and dry coating process, respectively. The N-particles on the surface of the coated fabrics were confirmed by energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS), and after double-layer composite coating, the adhesion durability, water vapor permeability, water penetration resistance, DSC, thermographic photography, far infrared (FIR) emission effect, and the thermal insulation of the coated fabrics were tested for investigating the performances. Their compatibility and adhesion were superior when the add-on of N-particles was 10 %. From the DSC reproducibility results, we verified that the N-particles coated fabric preserved its thermal stability by absorbing latent heat. On the other hand, the FIR emission rate and energy of the Ag N-particle based sample were not better than the control sample. |
