認識涼感衣 | What Are Fast Cooling Shirts?

何謂涼感衣？涼感衣為什麼會涼？

讓我們一起來了解涼感衣的原理。

市面上涼感衣有分為二種類型

第一種：合成纖維，摻入礦石材質

這種涼感衣在市面上較常見到。在合成纖維(如聚酯纖維、尼龍)的紡紗過程中添加礦石粉、玉石粉等材料。這類的合成纖維量感衣，通常會抽成十字形或Y字形的異形斷面紗線，織成較疏鬆透氣的針織布料，提升通風排汗的效果。

相較於紡織衣物材質，礦石的比熱小、熱平衡快，穿上添加礦石粉的衣物進到冷氣房，很快就能快速與環境溫度產生平衡作用，達到快速降溫的效果。這也是為什麼市售的涼感衣在店裡總是摸起總是涼爽涼爽的。

這類的涼感衣，缺點是在炎熱的環境裡溫度也相對地熱得快，在高溫的環境下，穿上這種涼感衣反而會比一般紡織品衣物感覺更熱。但因為這種涼感衣採用的是十字形或Y字形異形斷面紗線方式，所以雖然溫度提升得快，在皮膚接觸的舒適度上，還是比起一般衣物來的舒服許多。但切記，正因為溫度得快，造成人體皮膚快速排汗，所以大熱天穿此種涼感衣時，可千萬別多加外套，免得熱汗氣無法快速排出，感覺更加悶熱。

另一個缺點就是，這種涼感衣如果少了汗水的濕度，合成纖維容易與皮膚磨擦產生靜電，在穿著時可能會有些許癢感。

第二種：親水性材質

另一種涼感衣則是大量混用吸水性好的紡織材質如棉、黏液縲縈、銅銨嫘縈……等紡織纖維，或是在合成纖維上做親水化加工處理。

這類型的涼感衣雖然不會給人瞬間清涼的感受，但在炎熱的環境下也不會造成加熱的效果，且良好的吸汗功能帶來的適度回潮、舒適、不黏，讓身體產生一種濕涼感，的確很適合夏天。

這種材質的涼感衣，缺點就是大量吸水後不容易乾。因此在進行運動過後，汗流浹背時，如果立即進入冷氣房，濕透的衣物瞬間變冷，容易讓身體著涼。最好是換件衣服避免感冒。

Most of the Cooling Shirts on market can be divided into two types of categories

Polyester, wove with ore materials

 This type of Cooling Shirt is more common on the market. Adding ore powder (or other mineral material powder) into the process of weaving polyester. Such Cooling Shirts, usually use cross stitch or Y-shape stitch fabrics, therefore improve its wicking and breathability..

 Comparing to typical textile and clothing material, ore or other mineral materials have better thermal balancing ability; which means the body temperature can be easily balanced with outside environment, to achieve the effect of rapid cooling sensation to human body.

 The disadvantage of this type of Cooling Shirts is that, while in a high temperature environment, the material is relatively heating faster by transferring heat from outside to human body, making wearer feel even hotter. However, the use of cross stitch or Y-shape stitch method still make your skin feel less discomfort than other typical fabrics. Most importantly, do not wear additional layers on top of this type of Cooling Shirt, heating from Cooling Shirt might easily make your body sweating too much without sufficient breathability and result discomfort on your skin.

Another drawback of polyester is static electricity; without sufficient humidity inside can easily cause static electricity and making wearer itching skin.

Traditional fast sweat wicking material

 Some textile material such as cotton, mucus rayon and etc. This type of Cooling Shirt can’t give an instant sensation of cool, on the other hand, won’t cause heating effect in a high temperature environment. With fast sweat wicking ability, gives you the comfort and non-sticky feeling, which can also be suitable for summer.

The disadvantage of this type of Cooling shirt is that this kind of materials are not easily to get dry. 編排整理 Edited: ACOTEX Fabric Talks 布料指南
