Reversible camouflage material

This is a special reversible fabric designed to hide people from both regular sight and infrared cameras. It features a central layer that blocks infrared light, made from a polyurethane film sandwiched between two breathable expanded polytetrafluoroethylene (ePTFE) films. One of these ePTFE films has a special coating containing infrared-blocking additives, and the entire structure is then covered on both sides with different camouflage textile layers.

Why it matters: Filed before significant advancements in multi-spectral material science and textile lamination. New IR suppressive additives or film manufacturing processes could simplify production.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: SpecializedePTFE films, IR suppressive additives, lamination.
