3xdry;The feel-good technology

            The feel-good technology 3XDRY® makes textiles water and stain repellent on the outside and water absorbent on the inside. Clothes finished with 3XDRY® keeps the body dry, minimizes perspiration marks and stimulates a cooling effect.

The function:

 The 3XDRY®-Advanced Moisture Management-finish combines two technologies in one textile: on the outside the textiles is finished with a water repellent function (hydrophobic), whereas on the fabric's inside it absorbs perspiration (hydrophilic). As a result, it reliably repels moisture from the outside. Moisture resulting from perspiration is quickly absorbed from the inner side of the textile, transported away from the body and distributed over a large surface area. The appearance, hand or the air permeability features are not influenced by the 3XDRY®-finish.
Dry on the inside:
Moisture resulting from perspiration is quickly absorbed from the inner side of the textile with 3XDRY® treatment. Perspiration is distributed over a large surface area and escapes to the outside.
Dry on the outside:
The 3XDRY® treatment reliably repels moisture.
Dry in a flash:
The distribution of the moisture over a large surface area ensures rapid evaporation. Therefore, textiles with 3XDRY® dry noticeably faster than those without 3XDRY®.
Advantages
Minimize perspiration mark: Only the inside of the textile absorbs moisture .Perspiration marks are practically invisible from the outside.



Stimulates a cooling effect: With 3XDRY®, perspiration evaporates close to the body. This assists the natural cooling function of the body and ensures more energy during active phases.
Repels water and stains: Textiles with 3XDRY® treatment are significantly less susceptible to water, dirt and stains.

More Advantages:
Ø Advance moisture-Management system.
Ø Enables the skin to breathe.
Ø Ensures wear-comport you can see and feel.
Ø Is applicable on all textiles (Cotton, Synthetics, etc.)

Applications:
3XDRY® is ideal for outdoor, sportswear, women's fashion, men fashion, career apparel, work wear. It is applicable on all textiles (cotton, synthetics, etc.)

Application of nano technology: Military Clothing




  Military Cloth:
   Military clothing is the clothing that gives protection against environment, camouflage, specific battlefield threats, flame, heat and flash, insects, chemical and the ergonomic considerations to maintain physical comfort properties. These quality is possible only for nano technology.
Criteria for modern military Textiles Materials
·         Physical Requirement
·         Environment Requirement
·         Camouflage,Concealment and deception requirement.
·         Specific battlefield hazards.
·         Requirement for flames, heat and flash protection.
·         Economic consideration.
 without “physical requirement” and “Economic considaration” all are done in nano technology finishing.
Property of “Environmental Requirement”
