- The overall quality dependent from 4 factors:
15
* Waterproofness (Hydrostatic Head Rating): measured in 'mm' of watter it
16
withstands. Conversion:
18
* MVTR (Moisture Vapour Transmission Rate): g/m*m/24h
19
* Membranes transport water not equally at different hummidities. Generally,
20
most membranes perform better under high humidities. eVent one of the few
21
exclusions having constant transmission rate.
22
* Wet out - is a term to discribe a saturation point of the fabric, when it
23
stops repelling water, & breathing. It depends on the outer layer textile
24
and type of perciptation (rain, dry snow, humid snow, ...) how fast this
27
* 2L - Two layer: Outer (nylon) layer + membrane. In addition have mesh,
28
fleece, or satin lining.
29
* 3L - Three layer: has an inner layer that is bonded directly to the
30
membrane, making the jacket appear as one thin layer.
34
Dermizax: Worser characteristics, but does not require special care.

37
PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene / teflon)
38
- When watter is contacting with outer layer, over the time it closes
39
the pores of membrane and it looses it breathability (but remains
40
waterproof) and water condences inside (especially shoulders and spine).
41
To prevent it the outer layer is treated with DWR. Over time this DWR is
42
weaking and should be restored using thermal treatment or reapplied with
45
ePTFE (Expanded PTFE Membrane)
46
- Generally includes PU layer to protect against body fats (which transport
47
moisture making matterial less waterproof). Only then PU membrane is
48
saturated, the evaporation starts.
50
eVENT: Does not include PU layer but oil-repellent coating instead and,
51
therefore, evaporation starts faster
