20140042355 | Thermal Insulation with Entangled Particulate Units having Non-Integer Dimensionality - A synthetic insulation material that rivals and surpasses down in performance without suffering degradation in insulating power over time. The material is an aggregate of particulate units that have a fractal-like geometric configuration. The geometric configuration includes non-integer dimensionality that promotes physical entanglements of the particulate units. The physical entanglements impart a high frictional resistance to slippage of the particulate units to maintain loft over time by inhibiting the settling of particulate units upon compression. The geometric configuration further includes aspects of self-similarity. The particulate units are formed from a material that efficiently scatters thermal radiation. The combination of high loft and efficient scattering of thermal radiation minimizes heat loss resulting from conduction and radiation, leads to a superior material for thermal insulation, has excellent health characteristics for human and the environment, and exhibits excellent long term life cycle performance. | 02-13-2014 |
