Title: Vetement retroreflechissant permeable a la vapeur
Inventor: FEDUZI RINO A
IPC: D06P5/24
Filed: 2002-06-27
Granted: 2013-05-14
Abstract: L'invention décrit un matériau rétroréfléchissant perméable à la vapeur servant pour les vêtements de protection. Le matériau peut être formé d'un motif non continu qui offre un degré élevé de luminosité rétroréfléchissante, tout en offrant la perméabilité adéquate pour éviter l'exposition à l'énergie thermique piégée et l'humidité chauffée. Le motif rétroréfléchissant non continu peut comprendre des zones rétroréfléchissantes et des zones non rétroréfléchissantes disposées de sorte que la décroissance thermique à travers le vêtement de protection n'est pas substantiellement diminuée dans les zones correspondant au matériau rétroréfléchissant. Plutôt, la pénétration de la vapeur et la décroissance thermique à travers le vêtement peuvent être substantiellement les mêmes que si le matériau rétroréfléchissant n'était pas présent.
