Fabric inspired by pine cones. Close-up of the surface of a climate-sensitive fabric that reacts to temperature and humidity in a similar manner to that of pines cones. Female pine cones respond to low temperature and high moisture levels by closing their scales. At warmer temperatures and lower moisture levels the conditions are more favourable for seed dispersal and germination so the pine cones open. The fabric,called 'C_Change',incorporates a polymer that expands when it is cold,trapping heat for the wearer,and contracts when it is warm,allowing body heat to escape | |
