Microfibrous webs for thermal insulations SAXIMA are made from 100% polypropylene. They can be used for sportswear, gloves and accessories.
Thermal insulations SAXIMA are less air permeable than other standard thermal insulations from PES fibres, but in spite of that they are vapor permeable. The relative vapor permeability is in the range of 84 - 100% (tested by using static test method). Thermal parameters of SAXIMA webs are two times more effective in stabilizing thermal comfort compared to standard polyester insulations.
Thermal insulation SAXIMA
are not moisture absorbing, they absorb less than 1% of water
retain their insulating ability in damp conditions
dry very quickly
are washable up to 40°C
are even softer after washing
Variants of SAXIMA
SMO
two-layered composite
have only one protecting layer, suitable for combining with another type of lining or with waterproof membranes
SMSO
three-layered composite
have a thin PP web on both sides of composite, which protects the microfibre layer inside
The webs are offered in width of 100 cm on cores of 76 cm inside diameter. The most popular is SMSO 5147 as following.
