  • Publication number: 20150079353
    Abstract: A cloth includes a scrim backing and an aluminized coating heat pressed to either or both sides of the scrim, preferably between rollers which apply pressure to the scrim and the coating at a temperature selected to cause the coating to adhere to the scrim. If the scrim is dimpled, the heated aluminized plastic flows into the dimples, enhancing the bonding of the coating to the scrim and also at least partially filling the dimples to provide a smoother reflective finish than the uncoated surface of the scrim. If the scrim is not already dimpled, the surface of the pressing rollers can be selected to provide the desired dimpling. The scrim strengthens the cloth against tearing, stretching and distortion. The coating provides a radiant barrier. The resulting cloth is thin, lightweight, easily manipulated, thermally efficient, extremely “quiet” and especially well suited to hunting or other natural-environment activities.

  • Patent number: 6973742
    Abstract: The thermal foot cover is an article of footwear to be worn when the wearer's foot is subjected to cold temperatures. The thermal foot cover has an upper cover portion attached to a bottom panel to define a cavity for insertion of a wearer's shoe-encased or boot-encased foot or a wearer's foot. The upper cover portion and the bottom panel are made from a material comprising an outer covering, a radiant barrier and a inner covering where the radiant barrier is sandwiched between the outer cover and the inner cover. The radiant barrier is the insulation system of the thermal foot cover, which reflects the wearer's body heat back inside the footwear and keeps the wearer's feet warm. The thermal foot cover is flexible, lightweight and readily washable due to the use of the radiant barrier as the insulation system.
