subject: Basic information about blankets and space blankets [print this page] A hedge is a type of bedding, generally a large piece of fabric that are designed to keep warm, especially when he sleeps. Covers different sheets by their thickness and purpose of the thickest sheet is still thinner than the lightest blanket. This is because the thermal blankets are for warmth, while sheets of hygiene, comfort and aesthetics. Blankets are subdivided into several types, including blankets, duvets and pillows, according to their thickness, construction and / or fill material. Electric car blankets are heated by electricity. Blankets were traditionally made of wool because of the warmth of wool, breathability and natural properties of fire resistance, while the leaves are made of cotton or linen, which is less irritating to the skin. These days, synthetic fibers, often used for both. Thermal baby blankets are smaller blankets, often in decorative colors and patterns that can be used for more heat out of bed.
Use uniform heat in the body to keep heat inside the body, a rug can be used to cover your skin and keep the heat in. Many kinds of carpets such as wool used because they are thicker and have more substance to them, but cotton can also be used for light carpet. The term carpet is often exchanged with duvet, duvet and duvet covers, because they all have the same goal. The U.S. Department of Defense uses a blend of wool blankets for emergency relief, where the warmth and comfort are desirable characteristics. The characteristics of these carpets are described in paragraph description of the National Stock Number (NSN) 7210-00-119-5335.
Space blanket usage:
In its primary use, the covers are included in the area of emergency numbers, first aid and survival equipment, as they tend to be waterproof and windproof. Who, with its lightness and ability to pack into a small space, made them popular with outdoor enthusiasts and emergency workers. Space blankets are often marathoners at the end of the races. The material can be used in conjunction with the conductor and insulating material can be formed into a bag for use as a sleeping bag (bag of survival). In the first aid blankets are used to prevent hypothermia or counter. A triple action facilitates this. The airtight film reduces heat loss by convection caused by the evaporation of perspiration, moisture or blood is minimized by the same mechanism to some extent reflecting surface losses caused by radiation inhibits heat.
In a hot environment, they can be used to provide shade, but use them to wrap a person would be against-productive, since body heat is trapped by the sealing film. This effect can exceed the profits made by the reflection of heat back outside. Space blankets are used to reduce heat loss from the body of a person, but when they are made of PET film can be used for other purposes, this material is useful, such as insulated containers, such as projects crafts and other solar applications. Besides the spatial coverage, the U.S. military also uses a similar coverage known as carpet accident. It uses a heat reflective layer corresponding to the spatial coverage, supported by a force of olive colored sad outer layers. It provides greater durability and warmth of a carpet base at the expense of greater bulk and weight. It is also used as partial lining inside bivy sacks layer in very cold climates.
