Since the discovery of nanoporous materials (aerogel) in 1931, there is no doubt that this material is classed as a super insulation with the highest insulation value of any known material with the lowest thermal conductivity value of any solid. Unfortunately, the application of Aerogel is strongly limited due to the difficulty to handle. After eight years of exploration and efforts, Beijing Matrix Technologies Co.,Ltd has tackled the world challenge on the combination of mechanical force and thermal insulation.

SEM of Y-Warm

Y-Warm, a new thermal insulation material developed by , is a revolutionary excellent insulator with an extremely low thermal conductivity at 0.020 W/(m*K).   The thickness of the wall is 20-280 nm, and the pore size is 30-190 μm.   The closed-cell rate of Y-Warm is above 95% and the effective porosity is above 96% (Substrate removed).

CT of Y-Warm

When this material is applied between the fabric and lining of the garment, an insulation is formed so that the heat conduction from cold air outside to human body is dramatically slowed down.   The end effect of this insulation layer formed by Y-Warm would be the dramatic decrease of heat loss from the human body.   The dream of warm-keeping in winter with light garments can be realized in perfect unity through Y-Warm.

Different from the fluffy insulation of down and synthetic fibre, Y-Warm offers a new concept of warm-keeping for winter fashion.   From the appearance of Y-Warm, it is like a special kind of fabric with great tactile properties but lighter weight and smaller volume.   According to the inventor of , after putting Y-Warm in an experimental box at -60 °C for a week, the tactile property stays stable and warm.   If this material is soaked until several times of the original weight, it can still float on water.   Other properties, such as moisture-permeability, antimicrobial and quick-drying, make this material ideal.   Y-Warm is committed to the Human-Animal Coexistence and sustainability.   After 8 years’research, the R&D team in Beijing Matrix Technologies Co., Ltd. has overcome the technical challengesand has made this material shine in the application.

The test result of the substance of very high concern (SVHC) of Y-Warm fits the criteria of REACH Regulation in European Union.   is ECO-friendly and energy-saving.It can be applied at the temperature range of -50 - 150 ℃ in multiple fields, such as clothing, food, housing and transportation.
