Revolutionizing Textiles: Innovative Coatings for a Cool-Touch Effect

AQUACHILL™ Dispersion coating emerges as an innovative solution to address cool-touch performance in bedding clothes.

Currently, 10% to 60% of adults who visit their primary care physician do so due to night sweats. While many seek medication to control this condition, various recommendations highlight the importance of cool-touch bedding.

AQUACHILL™ Dispersion coating helps to address this common issue among today’s adults. Its technology maximizes cooling while providing a soft and luxurious sensation. It considers the three pillars of comfort: microclimate, tactile sensation, and ergonomics. Additionally, it stands out for its environmental friendliness.

Advanced Water-based AQUACHILL Coating

AQUACHILL™ is a water-based Cool-Touch coating with PCM and a polymeric binder ensuring advanced performance. Furthermore, it is solvent-free and offers top-tier thermal management alongside revolutionary comfort, good adhesion, and durability. It also boasts low VOC emissions and odor-neutral properties.

Enhancing Thermal Performance

This cutting-edge coating offers a remarkable enhancement in the cooling capabilities of foam, surpassing both uncoated foam and competing coatings. After 15 minutes, the coated foam achieves a peak temperature of under 28°C, showcasing a notably slower temperature escalation. Furthermore, the cooling effect provided by AQUACHILL™ outperforms traditional uncoated pillows by an impressive margin. It delivers a cooling intensity that is seven times more potent and sustains for 50% longer duration.

Redefining Pillow Comfort

AQUACHILL™ makes a substantial difference in the surface texture of the pillow. Durometer testing results indicate a smoother surface. This smoother texture translates into a softer, more natural feel for end-users, devoid of any plastic-like sensations. Moreover, through evaluation using confocal laser scanning microscopy, it is revealed that AQUACHILL™ exhibits significantly lower surface roughness compared to alternative coatings.

Enduring Resilience

The durability of AQUACHILL™ outperforms even the closest alternative. In rigorous accelerated aging tests conducted at 50°C, both initially and in the fifth week evaluation, AQUACHILL™ demonstrates remarkable resilience. It exhibits no signs of cracking or indentations, unlike its counterpart.

Furthermore, AQUACHILL™ excels in terms of adhesion. Peel tests reveal that while the alternative coating remains clean on the foam surface. AQUACHILL™ displays exceptional adhesion as the coating adheres tightly to the foam, indicating its robust bonding properties.

The Bedding Revolution Begins

AQUACHILL™ Dispersion coating represents a breakthrough in bedding technology. It offers unmatched cooling performance, enhanced surface comfort, and exceptional durability. With its ability to maintain a peak temperature below 28°C, superior adhesion, and smoother texture, AQUACHILL™ sets a new standard for comfort and quality in bedding textiles. Its innovative features promise a transformative experience for both manufacturers and consumers, emphasizing comfort, performance, and sustainability in equal measure.
