The high-tech functional fabric has grown for a long time, and it helps us to replace plenty of the textiles which we use to utilize in the past. For the Eco-purpose, we no longer use leather and animal fur to produce winter jackets. Instead of them, most people will choose fluff down jackets, and it provides a much better waterproof function and windproof, but it has lightweight.
These new high-tech functional fabrics do not only work in daily wearing. However, they also assist the medicine purpose wearing. They provide protection, detection, and observation.
1.Protection
The exposure suit is the most outstanding product in the field, and it presents excellent protection of viruses, chemical and toxic gas. There is also other protective apparel to support mechanics work under some specific environment. Medical gloves require to have a soft inside for a stretch ability, but they must be strong outside to prevent bacteria’s from getting into patients' bodies.
Most of these specific clothes designed with artificial materials, and it maximizes abrasion resistance and provides better protection for people who work in conditional places. Natural fibres can also play a significant role in the stage. Dyneema has a high-performance with safety gloves.
Another outstanding textile will be PCMs, known as Phase Changing Materials. It controls temperature and can adjust the warmth level.
2.Detection
The functional fabrics have developed a new technology, which could help us to detect our health condition. The wireless vest could measure an electrocardiogram, and this function could help people to find the early stage of Cancer. The smart bra works with a microwave antennae system, and it can wave in the fabrics and allows the user to detect the abnormal cells. This function could help females to detect breast cancer for the first time to prevent a worse situation in their life.
3.Observation
Heart disease patients will be difficult to reach after they left the hospital, but it always outbreaks suddenly without any indication. Therefore, smart garments will work at these moments as a crucial role. The smart shirt contains an electrocardiogram system on the chest, and it can automatically monitor 20 minutes a day. This function allowed the physician to consult patients' heart rate if they exceed the average rate.
The high-tech functional fabrics are developing at a fast speed to create convenience for our future; more and more functional wearing is changing human's destiny. We stand here for our better tomorrow and a much-advanced medication world.
