Material innovation company Coolcore, Portsmouth, N.H., has been issued U.S. Patent No. 9,121,642 for “Method of Cooling an Object with a Fabric.”

The patent covers activation that includes wetting the item, wringing out excess liquid and snapping or waving the fabric to activate the moisture control through the fabric. Specifically, the present invention is for a fabric that becomes cool when activated by liquid and remains cool for an extended period of time thereafter.

Coolcore also owns U.S. Patent No. 8,440,119 for its cooling material innovation.
