Method for the manufacture of cooling parts for a cooling garment

Abstract

Method for the manufacture of cooling parts for a cooling garment comprising the application of an absorbing polymer material to a first layer of a permeable fabric, covering the first layer and the absorbing polymer material with a second layer of a permeable fabric and connecting together the first and the second layer in a connecting pattern, wherein the absorbing polymer material is applied in immobilized form and cooling garment, comprising cooling parts comprising a first layer of fabric and a second layer of fabric, the first and second layer having been connected together in a pattern, the pattern forming pockets, the pockets containing absorbing polymer material, wherein in addition to the absorbing polymer material the pockets further contain a water soluble polymer.
