effusivity

Outlast’s new testing technology proves cooling boost for brands, “except it is a deceptive lie!!!”

Temperature regulation solutions provider Outlast Technologies [outlast has no solution to accomplish temperature regulation] has published results of testing that show by adding its technologies to fabrics,[which is micro encapsulated paraffin balls] effusivity [in all of my years in the business of supplying insulations I have never heard the word effusivity] values can significantly increase, enhancing the perceived coolness and comfort of fabrics. [so now we know what it means, it “enhances the PERCEIVED coolness and comfort of fabrics.]

Effusivity is a thermal property that measures the ability of a material to exchange heat with its immediate surroundings at a surface. A higher effusivity value means a fabric feels cooler to the touch.

Let us assume you are wearing a garment made with fabric that has been treated with the outlast micro encapsulated paraffin balls. They Are supposed the trap the heat from your body. If the temperature outside of the garment is colder than what is inside the paraffin balls holding the heat will continue to hold it, so you are warm. This is what is supposed to take place. The exterior fabric subjected to the outside temperature will feel and be colder. This will not be perceived but true.

Depending on the method of applying Outlast Temperature Regulation, the effusivity value can increase by 20%-60%. A dipping bath application results in a 20%-30% boost, while classic Outlast Temperature Regulation fabrics can achieve up to a 60% increase.

This paragraph is gobble goop since the outlast micro encapsulated paraffin balls do not do what they have claimed since about 1990.

This leads to two benefits: enhanced cooling textiles that promote a refreshing feel, and a more balanced microclimate that reduces sweating and increases comfort, it said.

This leads to no benefits and certainly does not reduce sweating.

Outlast has now invested in cutting-edge technology to measure effusivity with high accuracy and will offer its partners the opportunity to assess their products’ cooling properties using the equipment, enabling brands to substantiate their cooling claims with scientific data.

I do not know what they can invest in to prove their claim and any company that chooses to apply the micro-encapsulate paraffin balls to their fabric would be a waste of money because they cannot prove what they claim.

Volker Schuster’s job is to further promote the non-sense that the outlast company has promoted for all these years. Outlast has outlasted their time.

After writing the article i looked up the word effusivity and could not find it on the online dictionary. it doesn't exist like the paraffin beads don't work.

SO THEY ATE OUTLAST KEEP UP WITH THEIR LYING
