Research on PCM Textiles with Material Properties in Sports Wear Application

Article Preview

Abstract:

A new type of intelligent PCM functional textile has been developed based on intelligent phase change material and advanced textile manufacturing technology. The application of such PCM textile in sports wear can help to enhance athletes performance. This paper analyzes the effects of intelligent PCM textile, characteristics of phase change materials and its preparation methods; discusses the possible effects of intelligent PCM textile to the results of sports events; suggests to make further study and research on phase change material in sports wear application so to develop more PCM sports wear suitable for different sports events.
