Research abstract

COLD WEATHER PROTECTIVE CLOTHING OF TODAY CONSISTS PRIMARILY OF MANY THIN LAYERS OF INSULATING MATERIAL. IT WOULD BE FAR MORE DESIRABLE IF COLD WEATHER PROTECTIVE CLOTHING COULD RELEASE USEFUL AMOUNTS OF HEAT FOR PERIODS OF TIME DURING WHICH THE WEARER'S BODY WAS UNABLE TO PROVIDESUFFICIENT HEAT TO MAINTAIN BODY TEMPERATURE. THIS APPROACHIS SIMILAR IN CONCEPT TO THE USE OF PHASE CHANGE MATERIALS TO STORE SOLAR ENERGY. THE RESEARCH EXPLORES THE FEASIBILITY OF PRODUCING FABRICS WHICH CAN STORE THERMAL ENERGY THROUGH PHASE CHANGES.
