METHODS AND COMPOSITIONS FOR COOLING YARNS AND FABRICS, AND ARTICLES COMPRISING SAME

BACKGROUND

Denim is thought to have derived its name from a French fabric called “serge de Nimes” that was worn in the 16th century and has a twill weave similar to the denim fabric of today. The durability and flexible application of denim led to it becoming popular in England in the 17^thcentury. Another fabric that gained popularity during the same time period was a cotton corduroy fabric that originated in Genoa, Italy and which was called jean, derived from its place of origin. At the time, denim was made of two different threads of cotton, one colored and one white, while jean used two threads of cotton of the same color. It seems that the two fabrics became synonymous during this period and became known by both names.

The fabric traveled to North America, and American textile factories were producing denim/jean in the late 1700s. The book, “The Weavers Draft Book and Clothiers Assistant,” published in 1792, contains technical sketches of the weaving methods for a variety of denims. The popularity of denim was secured in the success of the Levi Strauss Company, who patented the riveting process to produce denim work pants in 1873 and sold them to miners in San Francisco. The pants were known for their comfort, durability and ability to hold their shape. In “Staple Cotton Fabrics” by John Hoye, published in 1942, denim was described as, “The most important fabric of the work-clothing group . . . . Denims are strong and serviceable; they are particularly strong in the warp direction, where the fabric is subjected to greater wear than the filling.”

The widespread appeal of denim, especially in pants, based on their comfortable shape and durability overshadows drawbacks of this material such as poor drying, lack of stretch, rough hand feel and poor thermal conductiveness. Denim enhancements have led to the combination of spandex to soften the fabric and give it stretch. Other yarns have also been added to improve the softness and hand feel of the fabric. However, little has been done to improve the wicking, drying and thermal conductivity of the fabric. Denim naturally absorbs moisture, but does not effectively remove it away from the skin. The fabric becomes “swampy”—moist and hot—when worn in warm environments or while active, holding on to the moisture and the heat generated by the person wearing the material.

Thus, despite advances in textile research, there remains an important need for yarns that can be utilized in denim that address the know shortcomings of this fabric, such as poor wicking, drying time, and thermal conductiveness, while maintaining the hand feel and function. These needs and other needs are satisfied by the present disclosure.

All publications mentioned herein are incorporated herein by reference to disclose and describe the methods and/or materials in connection with which the publications are cited. The publications discussed herein are provided solely for their disclosure prior to the filing date of the present application. Nothing herein is to be construed as an admission that the present invention is not entitled to antedate such publication by virtue of prior invention. Further, the dates of publication provided herein can be different from the actual publication dates, which can require independent confirmation.

While aspects of the present disclosure can be described and claimed in a particular statutory class, such as the system statutory class, this is for convenience only and one of skill in the art will understand that each aspect of the present disclosure can be described and claimed in any statutory class.

It is also to be understood that the terminology used herein is for the purpose of describing particular aspects only and is not intended to be limiting. Unless defined otherwise, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which the disclosed compositions and methods belong. It will be further understood that terms, such as those defined in commonly used dictionaries, should be interpreted as having a meaning that is consistent with their meaning in the context of the specification and relevant art and should not be interpreted in an idealized or overly formal sense unless expressly defined herein.

Prior to describing the various aspects of the present disclosure, the following definitions are provided and should be used unless otherwise indicated. Additional terms may be defined elsewhere in the present disclosure.

A. Definitions

As used herein, “comprising” is to be interpreted as specifying the presence of the stated features, integers, steps, or components as referred to, but does not preclude the presence or addition of one or more features, integers, steps, or components, or groups thereof. Additionally, the term “comprising” is intended to include examples and aspects encompassed by the terms “consisting essentially of” and “consisting of.” Similarly, the term “consisting essentially of” is intended to include examples encompassed by the term “consisting of.”

As used in the specification and the appended claims, the singular forms “a,” “an” and “the” include plural referents unless the context clearly dictates otherwise. Thus, for example, reference to “a polymer,” “a yarn,” or “a fabric,” including, but not limited to, two or more such polymers, yarns, or fabrics, and the like.

It should be noted that ratios, concentrations, amounts, and other numerical data can be expressed herein in a range format. It will be further understood that the endpoints of each of the ranges are significant both in relation to the other endpoint, and independently of the other endpoint. It is also understood that there are a number of values disclosed herein, and that each value is also herein disclosed as “about” that particular value in addition to the value itself. For example, if the value “10” is disclosed, then “about 10” is also disclosed. Ranges can be expressed herein as from “about” one particular value, and/or to “about” another particular value. Similarly, when values are expressed as approximations, by use of the antecedent “about,” it will be understood that the particular value forms a further aspect. For example, if the value “about 10” is disclosed, then “10” is also disclosed.

When a range is expressed, a further aspect includes from the one particular value and/or to the other particular value. For example, where the stated range includes one or both of the limits, ranges excluding either or both of those included limits are also included in the disclosure, e.g. the phrase “x to y” includes the range from ‘x’ to ‘y’ as well as the range greater than ‘x’ and less than ‘y’. The range can also be expressed as an upper limit, e.g. ‘about x, y, z, or less’ and should be interpreted to include the specific ranges of ‘about x’, ‘about y’, and ‘about z’ as well as the ranges of ‘less than x’, less than y′, and ‘less than z’. Likewise, the phrase ‘about x, y, z, or greater’ should be interpreted to include the specific ranges of ‘about x’, ‘about y’, and ‘about z’ as well as the ranges of ‘greater than x’, greater than y′, and ‘greater than z’. In addition, the phrase “about ‘x’ to ‘y’”, where ‘x’ and ‘y’ are numerical values, includes “about ‘x’ to about ‘y’”.

It is to be understood that such a range format is used for convenience and brevity, and thus, should be interpreted in a flexible manner to include not only the numerical values explicitly recited as the limits of the range, but also to include all the individual numerical values or sub-ranges encompassed within that range as if each numerical value and sub-range is explicitly recited. To illustrate, a numerical range of “about 0.1% to 5%” should be interpreted to include not only the explicitly recited values of about 0.1% to about 5%, but also include individual values (e.g., about 1%, about 2%, about 3%, and about 4%) and the sub-ranges (e.g., about 0.5% to about 1.1%; about 5% to about 2.4%; about 0.5% to about 3.2%, and about 0.5% to about 4.4%, and other possible sub-ranges) within the indicated range.

As used herein, the terms “about,” “approximate,” “at or about,” and “substantially” mean that the amount or value in question can be the exact value or a value that provides equivalent results or effects as recited in the claims or taught herein. That is, it is understood that amounts, sizes, formulations, parameters, and other quantities and characteristics are not and need not be exact, but may be approximate and/or larger or smaller, as desired, reflecting tolerances, conversion factors, rounding off, measurement error and the like, and other factors known to those of skill in the art such that equivalent results or effects are obtained. In some circumstances, the value that provides equivalent results or effects cannot be reasonably determined. In such cases, it is generally understood, as used herein, that “about” and “at or about” mean the nominal value indicated ±10% variation unless otherwise indicated or inferred. In general, an amount, size, formulation, parameter or other quantity or characteristic is “about,” “approximate,” or “at or about” whether or not expressly stated to be such. It is understood that where “about,” “approximate,” or “at or about” is used before a quantitative value, the parameter also includes the specific quantitative value itself, unless specifically stated otherwise.

As used herein the terms “weight percent,” “wt %,” and “wt. %,” which can be used interchangeably, indicate the percent by weight of a given component based on the total weight of a composition of which it is a component, unless otherwise specified. That is, unless otherwise specified, all wt % values are based on the total weight of the composition. It should be understood that the sum of wt % values for all components in a disclosed composition or formulation are equal to 100. Alternatively, if the wt % value is based on the total weight of a subset of components in a composition, it should be understood that the sum of wt % values the specified components in the disclosed composition or formulation are equal to 100.

As used herein, the term “effective amount” refers to an amount that is sufficient to achieve the desired modification of a physical property of the composition or material. For example, an “effective amount” of a cooling composition refers to an amount that is sufficient to achieve the desired improvement in the property modulated by the cooling composition, e.g. achieving the desired enhancement in Qmax compared to a yarn or fabric without the effective amount. The specific level in terms of wt % in a composition required as an effective amount will depend upon a variety of factors including the amount and type of polymer and yarn, fabric use, and the like.

As used herein, the terms “optional” or “optionally” means that the subsequently described event or circumstance can or cannot occur, and that the description includes instances where said event or circumstance occurs and instances where it does not.

As used herein, the term “transition metal” means an element whose atom has a partially filled d sub-shell, or which can give rise to cations with an incomplete d sub-shell, typically found in Groups 3-12 of the periodic table in Periods 4-7. Exemplary, but non-limiting, transition metals include titanium, vanadium, chromium, manganese, iron, cobalt, nickel, copper, zinc, yttrium, zirconium, silver, tungsten, platinum, and gold.

As used herein, “nanosilver” and “nano silver oxide,” can be used interchangeably, and refer to silver oxide (i.e., silver (I) oxide, silver (II) oxide, or combinations thereof) in which the silver oxide is in a form comprising substantially a particulates, a powder, or combinations thereof, in which the particles and/or powder are nano-sized. That is the particles or powder, as appropriate, generally have a size of about 1 nm to about 1000 nm.

Unless otherwise specified, temperatures referred to herein are based on atmospheric pressure (i.e. one atmosphere).

A comparator denim sample representative of a commonly available standard denim fabric was prepared with the following characteristics: 52″×6.5 oz/sy; aggregate fiber content was 100% cotton; warp faced fabric with a 3/1 twill weave pattern.

The representative disclosed fabric sample and comparator denim sample were subjected to tests to determine the following: (a) Qmax was determined in accordance with FTTS-FA-019 as specified by Committee of Conformity Assessment of Accreditation and Certification on Functional and Technical Textiles (Taiwan); (b) drying time and rates were determined in accordance with AATCC 200 (“Drying Rate of Textiles at their Absorbent Capacity: Air Flow Method”) and AATCC 201 (“Drying Rate of Fabrics: Heated Plate Method”); and (c) UPF dry and wet evaluation were determined in accordance with AATCC 183 (“Transmittance or Blocking of Erythemally Weighted Ultraviolet Radiation through Fabrics”). The data obtained in these tests are given below in Table 1. All tests were conducted by Intertek Testing Services Taiwan Ltd. (8F, No. 423, Ruiguang Rd., Neihu District, Taipei 11492, Taiwan (R.O.C.).

*Not applicable per AATCC 200 standards, i.e., fabric took greater than 30 seconds for absorbency.

The data in Table 1 show that a representative disclosed fabric, i.e., a disclosed denim fabric, has surprisingly superior thermal characteristics as exhibited in the 34% enhanced Qmax value; and markedly improved drying and UPF characteristics. For example, the representative disclosed fabric is 500% faster in moisture wicking compared to a standard denim sample (cf. a dry time of 11.9 seconds for the representative disclosed fabric versus over 60 seconds for a standard denim sample), and much improved drying rates (cf. a drying rate of 0.65 ml/hr for the representative disclosed fabric versus a non-measurable drying rate for a standard denim sample under the conditions of the test, i.e., the standard denim sample showed absorbency greater than 30 seconds, so a determination of ml/hour could not be made). Moreover, with regard to UPF properties, the representative disclosed fabric show a 320% improvement in the dry evaluation and a 413% improvement in the wet evaluation. The foregoing improvements were attainable while using a 100% cotton yarn in the warp weave, but incorporating a disclosed double covered yarn in the weft weave.

Representative scanning electron micrograph (SEM) images are shown in FIGS. 2A-2B of the representative disclosed fabric sample used in this example. Representative SEM images are shown in FIGS. 3A-3B of the warp yarn used in representative disclosed fabric sample of this example. Representative SEM images are shown in FIGS. 4A-4B of the weft yarn used in representative disclosed fabric sample of this example. All SEM images were obtained at the Georgia Electron Microscopy Center (University of Georgia, 151 Barrow Hall, 115 D.W. Brooks Drive, Athens Ga. 30602, USA).

The data in Table 2 show that a representative disclosed fabric, i.e., a disclosed denim fabric comprising a disclosed double covered yarn and a cotton yarn, has surprisingly superior fabric characteristics as exhibited in the thermal resistance, air permeability, and improved drying and wicking characteristics. For example, the representative disclosed denim fabric had a 48-57% improvement in Qmax value compared to the comparator conventional cooling denim fabrics, i.e., Comparator Fabrics A and B. It should be noted that the Qmax method determines the maximum heat lost or instantaneous cooling feeling of the fabric between the temperature of 25° C. and 35° C., i.e., a cooling characteristic associated with a short time period.

Moreover, the representative disclosed denim fabric had 50% improvement in moisture wicking compared to the comparator conventional cooling denim fabrics (cf. a wicking time of 2 minutes for the representative disclosed fabric versus 4 minutes for a comparator cooling denim fabrics), and much improved drying rates (cf. a drying rate of 1.03 ml/hr for the representative disclosed fabric versus 0.83 ml/hr for Comparator Fabric A under the conditions of the test).

In the aggregate, the disclosed representative fabric showed a surprisingly significant improvement in a number of characteristics and properties compared to conventional.
