2. Thinsulate - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thinsulate

   The thermal resistance R-value provided by Thinsulate products varies by the specific thickness and construction of the fabric. [12] Values (US units) range from 1.6 for 80-gram fabric to 2.9 for 200-gram fabric. [13] Thinsulate is considered "the warmest thin apparel insulation" available.

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Units_of_textile_measurement

   Textile fibers, threads, yarns and fabrics are measured in a multiplicity of units.. A fiber, a single filament of natural material, such as cotton, linen or wool, or artificial material such as nylon, polyester, metal or mineral fiber, or human-made cellulosic fibre like viscose, Modal, Lyocell or other rayon fiber is measured in terms of linear mass density, the weight of a given length of ...

6. Heatsetting - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heatsetting

   Heat setting is a term used in the textile industry to describe a thermal process usually taking place in either a steam atmosphere or a dry heat environment. The effect of the process gives fibers, yarns or fabric dimensional stability and, very often, other desirable attributes like higher volume, wrinkle resistance or temperature resistance ...

7. Clothing insulation - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clothing_insulation

   The ambient temperature at which someone's body will be at thermal equilibrium depends on the rate of heat generation per unit area P and the thermal insulance of the clothing R. The empirical formula is: [citation needed] T = 31°C − P·R. or, if R is taken to be the number of clos and P the number of watts per square metre, T = (31 − 0. ...
