A hydrophobic polyether-block-polyamide copolymer (PEBA) for the manufacture of a fabric material capable of cooling after the material has been brought into contact with an aqueous medium at a temperature lying in the range from 15° C. to Tm-20° C., Tm being the melting point of the fabric material, the aqueous medium comprising at least 85 wt % water relative to the weight of the aqueous medium, the PEBA comprising 20 to 80 wt % polyamide blocks and 80 to 20 wt % polyether blocks and having a saturated water absorption of less than 6 wt % according to the ISO 62 standard relative to the weight of PEBA, a cooling fabric comprising such a PEBA and the use of this fabric in the medical, hygiene, baggage, confection, clothing, domestic or household equipment, furnishing, carpet, automotive or industrial fields, especially for industrial filtration, agricultural and/or building matter. |
