Автор: Michael Fischer
Принадлежит: Individual

A water-sport garment constructed with waterproof, breathable fabric panels and waterproof, non-breathable fabric panels. The waterproof, breathable fabric is constructed of one layer of a waterproof, breathable membrane with an inner and outer layer of synthetic knit fabric. The synthetic knit fabric is treated with a durable water repellant coating to prevent water absorption yet retain heat dissipation properties. The waterproof, breathable fabric is affixed to a conventional waterproof, non-breathable fabric used in the construction of water-sport garments. Construction of garments using panels of the waterproof, breathable fabric results in greater flexibility for the wearer, due to the waterproof, breathable fabric's improved stretchiness, as well as improved comfort for the wearer due to heat dissipation from areas of high heat generation during highly aerobic water-sports activities.

A wetsuit material that implements graphene material. The wetsuit of the present invention provides substantial strength and protection against cuts and abrasions. The implementation of graphene to a wetsuit protects the user from punctures from breakage and provides further protection for the diver when in use. 1. A wet suit comprising implementation of graphene material. The present invention relates to a wetsuit made of graphene material for protective purposes.A wetsuit is a garment normally made of neoprene that is usually worn by surfers, divers, windsurfers or other individuals that may be engaged in water sports. The wetsuit provides thermal insulation, abrasion resistance and buoyancy. Insulation properties help to avoid heat transfer allowing the individual to enjoy water activities in a cool environment. Wetsuits come in different styles such as a wetsuit with short leggings and other wetsuits that contain full leggings. Further the wetsuits vary in thickness in order to provide further heat or thermal protection with a thicker variety of a wetsuit. Further the wetsuit may come with a hood for head covering.Although wetsuits provide suitable thermal insulation and buoyance but some wetsuits are subject to punctures or abrasions when swimming or diving in or near coral reef areas. Such punctures could be hazardous to the user of a wetsuit and cause substantial injury to the diver. Graphene is a carbon with a hexeagonal lattice. The properties of this material are that it is a very strong material that provides suitable heat conduction and also conducts electricity. Graphene is primarily used as a semiconductor in electronics batteries and composites industries due to its strong nature and ability to conduct electricity. Other applications of graphene include solar cells, light emitting dials, touch panels and smart windows or phones. However the implementation of such a material into a wetsuit could provide substantial strength resistance from abrasions ...
