Kelheim Fibres is the world's leading producer of viscose speciality fibres intends to extend its range of speciality products by a newly developed viscose fibre with incorporated IR-reflecting particles for improved wellbeing and better performance.
The human body, like any other matter with comparable temperature, releases a large part of its energy via thermal radiation. Thermal radiation emanating from a body is reflected by the particles incorporated in the viscose fibre and sent back to the body, so reducing the cooling of the person.
