An article of apparel is formed that is effective to regulate the temperature of the wearer. In an embodiment, a thermal regulation composition is applied to a surface of a textile substrate at a first temperature and a first pressure to form a thermal regulation membrane disposed on the surface of the textile substrate. The textile substrate with the thermal regulation membrane is compressed at a second pressure and a second temperature to position a portion of the thermal regulation membrane below the surface of the textile substrate. The textile substrate is incorporated into an article of apparel. The thermal regulation composition can include one or more system reactive components provided within a binder, where a system reactive components can include a cooling agent, a latent heat agent and/or a heat dissipation agent.

A fabric structure includes a first layer, a second layer, and a spacing layer that interconnects the first layer and the second layer, wherein, the interconnecting of the first layer, second layer, and third layer forms a plurality of channels.

An electrostatic adsorption mask is provided. The mask comprises two straps, a mask body, a filtering layer and a tiny power. The filtering layer is located in the mask body and comprises a first carbon nanotube layer, a second carbon nanotube layer and an insulated porous layer. The insulated porous layer is located between the first carbon nanotube layer and the second carbon nanotube layer. The first carbon nanotube layer and the second carbon nanotube layer are electrically coupled with the tiny power. An electric field is existed between the first carbon nanotube layer and the second carbon nanotube layer.

A facemask includes a transparent, clear film, about 0.5 to 3 mils in thickness which is breathable and having micro-perforations therein; an anti-biological coating on at least one side of the transparent, clear film; and at least one fabric layer coupled via an adhesive layer to the clear film. The facemasks provides a transparent mask for the user that will minimize adverse skin reactions of the wearer due to the use of the fabric layer adjacent the skin.

A face mask includes a fabric filter configured to be worn on a user's face. A composition with anti-viral properties is arranged on the fabric. The composition preferably includes anti-viral oils and an anti-viral metal such as copper or copper oxide.

A fine cover particularly for use with respirator facemasks comprises one or more components, each defined by a perimeter, holding flexible, breathable material. The components expand to cover part of a respirator facemask and fold smoothly to close exposed surfaces during removal, thereby preventing pathogen shedding. The cInstitute of Medicine, 2006 Reusability of Facemasks During an Influenza Pandemic: Facing the Flu; losed unit is placed in a bag for cleaning, disposal, or testing. Samples taken from fine cover can be tested to detect airborne pathogens, an optimal airborne pathogen monitoring system in medical facilities. In addition, the fine cover may have graphical imagery to directs an observer's gaze in the same patterns followed when looking at an unmasked face, thereby reducing subconscious interaction anxiety.

A support garment that provides upper and lower support for the breasts of a wearer through the use of alternating struts and openings to create a webbed configuration is provided. The first support area comprises an upper support portion made up of a first structural configuration comprising a plurality of alternating struts and openings. The upper support portion is located above breast cup portions of the support garment. The second support area comprises a lower support portion located below the breast cup portions. The lower support portion includes a second structural configuration comprising a plurality of alternating struts of openings.

An air mask is applied for a user to wear and includes a wearable main body, an airflow generator and a face shield. The wearable main body has a front part and a rear part and includes an airflow channel, an air inputting port disposed on the rear part, and an air outputting port disposed on the front part. The airflow generator is coupled to the air inputting port and configured for generating and guiding airflow to the airflow channel. The face shield is coupled to the front part of the wearable main body and has an air chamber communicated with the air outputting port. When the user wears the air mask, the air inputting port is located on rear head of the user, the air outputting port is located on forehead of the user, and the airflow flows downward from the forehead of the user to the air chamber.

A personal protective apparatus, having a wearable support member and a mesh shield securable thereto. The mesh shield may include first and second air-permeable conductive layers secured to the wearable support member and a first air-permeable non-conductive layer received between the first and second air-permeable conductive layers to separate them, and a portable power supply coupled to the mesh shield with a negative high voltage lead to the first air-permeable conductive layer and a positive high voltage lead to the second air-permeable conductive layer. The mesh shield may be a flexible mesh shield, and include at least one air-permeable layer secured at a first layer upper end to the wearable support member to hang from the wearable support member, the at least one air-permeable layer including at least one of an anti-virus material and an anti-microbial material. A fibrous filter layer may overlay an outer surface of the mesh shield.

A multilayer fabric for selectively blocking or transmitting particular wavelengths in the electromagnetic spectrum, such solar radiation, and far infrared (FIR) radiation. The multilayer fabric may include a microporous water vapor permeable layer that selectively filters particular wavelengths depending on the size of its pores. In some embodiments, the multilayer fabric may include a nanostructured layer that selectively filters particular wavelengths.
