MOF-catalyzed transient encapsulation turns PCM cores into dispersible, processable microcapsules. Bring latent-heat buffering into fibres, coatings and foams while developing the feel and durability of the finished product.
Focus on processing, dispersion and performance after use to build thermal function into flexible substrates.
01 / Microencapsulation for substrate integration
Distribute the PCM core within fibres, finishes or foam.
MOF-catalyzed transient encapsulation forms a core–shell structure; particle size and loading are adapted to fibres, coatings, foams and elastomers.
Data and validation basisMaterial parameters: particle distribution, core loading and dispersion
02 / High enthalpy: store heat within limited space
Obtain measurable contact-temperature buffering at the finished-product loading.
Latent heat stores energy within the selected transition range; usable capacity follows the effective PCM content of the finished product.
Data and validation basisFinished-product validation: enthalpy per mass/area and temperature response
03 / Encapsulation reliability for real use
Preserve encapsulation and substrate compatibility after spinning, coating or foaming.
Assess shell integrity, core retention and interface compatibility, then recheck after the actual process or operating cycle.
Data and validation basisProcess validation: shell integrity, core migration and feel
04 / Microcapsule durability: retain shell integrity and latent heat
Define latent-heat retention after repeated use and washing.
The core–shell structure confines PCM. Validate shell integrity, core retention and latent performance after thermal cycling and washing of the finished product.
Data and validation basisDurability: agreed wash count, thermal cycles and retained enthalpy
Microencapsulated PCM in finishes, composite fiber layers or foam substrates.
01
Suitable temperatures prepare the phase change core to absorb heat.
02
Within its working range, the core absorbs some heat and provides temporary temperature buffering.
03
Cooling releases stored heat. Performance must be validated against loading, substrate and test method.

Technical resources & validation
Performance and available capacity depend on the product, operating conditions and validation.
From capsule to cloth.
02 / How it's built
From capsule to cloth.
— 01
Microcapsule
A PCM core sealed in a robust shell down to 200 nm. It melts and re-freezes at the comfort point without ever leaking into the fibre.
— 02
Yarn
Capsules are spun into the fibre or bonded as a finish — distributing capacity through the whole cloth, not just on the surface.
— 03
Fabric
Woven or knitted into bedding, apparel, and throws — soft hand-feel, machine-washable, with thermal buffering built into the cloth itself.
Where the fabric goes.
03 / Product range
Where the fabric goes.
— Bedding
Cool-touch bedding
Quilts, pillow covers, and mattress toppers that pull the warm peak off the body at sleep onset — for a cooler, steadier night without dropping the room temperature.

Capsule shell and phase change core
Suitable temperatures prepare the phase change core to absorb heat.
Within its working range, the core absorbs some heat and provides temporary temperature buffering.
Cooling releases stored heat. Performance must be validated against loading, substrate and test method.
Structures and cycles illustrate the principle. Selection, capacity and performance depend on operating conditions and validation.
