New Fabric Could Help Keep You Cool in the Summer, Even Without A/C | Headline Science

Air conditioning feels great on a hot summer day, but cooling homes and buildings uses considerable electricity. Now, scientists have developed a cool new fabric that could help its wearer beat the heat - without turning on the A/C. Based on research published in ACS Applied Materials and Interfaces.

How can you make the whole garment/fabric by using nanofibers? The idea works well on lab scale where you have only a small specimen size to measure. In real life it is not possible to have the whole garment of nanofiber because the electrospinning technique does not produce that much bigger size. Would love to hear about it from the authors.
