3M 重新開發用於運動服飾的「炭黑」反光技術

運動服裝設計師們將會有新的3M Scotchlite高性能反光材料。此項新的3M Scotchlite高性能反光材料技術將適應各種穿著環境。不論是公司的會議室到咖啡廳或是戶外的自行車道上，新的3M Scotchlite高性能反光材料都不會讓你的服裝顯得特別突兀。

新的專利技術 C790「碳黑」拉伸轉印膜(Carbon Black Stretch Transfer Film)在平常日光下顯現的是深黑色。一到了晚上受照明時，3M Scotchlite著名的高反光亮度就馬上顯現出來。這種高反光亮度材料不但可以拉伸，也同時具有長效耐洗滌的功能。並可以進行低溫黏合，讓這種材料在不影響設計和品質上，更廣泛使用於各種織物布料上。

有別於傳統的銀色反光材料不同，傳統的銀色反光材料在玻璃微珠層上塗上了薄薄的色彩塗料，而3M新的「炭黑技術」使顏色融入材料結構本身之中，這增強了顏色的鮮豔度與色彩牢度，並維持平均300RA的初始亮度。炭黑技術還有助於提供斜角偏光的亮度，以提高在低光光源條件下的可見度。

「當設計師想設計時尚且反光的運動服飾時，再也不需要在反光機能和外觀上作妥協」3M的Ryan Gallagher說道「C790的碳黑轉印膜可以融入設計，並且是截至為止拉伸力最強的反光材料。也就是說設計師將可以用單一材料就可以同時得到融入外觀、凸顯反光和動感元素」

3M Reinvents Reflective Material For Activewear With Carbon Black Technology

Athletic apparel designers have a new, high-performance reflective material from 3M™ Scotchlite™ Reflective Material available to them as they create activewear that can be worn from the conference room to the coffee shop to the bike path.

The patented* C790 Carbon Black Stretch Transfer Film is a rich, deep black-colored material when viewed in daylight. But when illuminated at night, the material delivers vibrant reflective brightness that Scotchlite reflective material is known for. The vivid brightness of the material is durable through wear, stretch or washing. Featuring a low-temp bonding capability, it also can adhere to a wide variety of fabrics without affecting design or quality.

Unlike traditional colorized-silver reflective materials that apply a thin layer of color on top of glass beads, 3M’s proprietary carbon black technology makes the color inherent to the material’s construction. This creates a discreet, color-fast material with initial brightness averaging 300 RA strike. Carbon black technology also helps provide off-angle brightness for increased visibility in low-light conditions.

“Designers of active apparel no longer have to compromise when they want a high performing, on-trend reflective material, “ said Ryan Gallagher, 3M. “C790 carbon black transfer film is the deepest black and highest stretch reflective material we’ve ever made, meaning designers now have a single material that can blend in, stand out and move with any active pursuit or dynamic lifestyle.”

C790 carbon black transfer film can accommodate a wide range of applications on gear worn for training, running, cycling, motorsports and more.
