Smart breathable fabrics

Another distinct development of smart breathable fabric is based on biomimetics. Biomimetics is the mimicking of biological mechanisms, with modification, to produce useful artificial items. The water vapour permeability of fabric coatings can be improved by incorporating an analogue of the leaf stomata which open when the plant needs to increase moisture vapour transpiration and close when it needs to reduce it. Currently, there are several developments in the area of waterproof breathable fabrics based on biomimetics, as discussed below. [Pg.36]
