Hi everyone, I am working on a new design with insulated clothing and I was hoping for some product selection assistance.
I am looking for a insulation that is designed to work while under compression. I know thinsulate works on this concept and I have found lamalite by wigley's. I was wondering are there other insulation brands that are designed to be under compression like one would expect in footwear?
I would also consider other insulations that meet the following when compressed:
1 need 2mm and 3mm of compressed insulation.
The insulation will be under roughly 15lbs a square inch of pressure at worst case senerio and must remain at desired thickness.
It must be flexible enough to be used in clothing.
I am looking for the lightest material with the given thickness of 2mm and 3mm. So any help with some names or suggestions.
