Coolmax
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Coolmax is the brand name of a series of fabrics designed to wick moisture away from the skin. The fabrics employ specially-engineered polyester fibres to improve "breathability" compared to natural fibres like cotton.
Clothing made from Coolmax is primarily intended to be worn during exertion — sweat can evaporate quickly so the wearer is kept cool. Other useful properties include fast drying and resistance to fading, shrinking and wrinkling.
Additionally, Coolmax is used as a mattress cover.
Coolmax is a registered trademark of the manufacturer, INVISTA.
