Endothermic salts integrated in impermeable suits do not reduce heat strain during exercise
Wearing impermeable garments during work inherently leads to heat strain, even in cold environments [1]. Phase change materials (mainly paraffin’s or salt [4]) may be used as a thermal buffer (e.g. [2]) to reduce initial heat stress. Salts can also be used to absorb sweat, which may enhance the cool...
