A system for dispersing scent for hunting comprises a material formed into an article of wearing apparel. The material has an inner layer and an outer layer, the inner layer having a looped structure and the outer layer having a tight structure with perforations. The inner layer is adapted to receive perspiration from a user donning the wearing apparel and wick the perspiration through the perforations in the outer layer using body heat from the user. The material also includes an activator containing the scent, the activator contained in the outer layer, the scent being dispersed from the outer layer as a result of body heat emanating from the user for either covering the hunter's odors or attracting animals to the hunter. |

Performance wear made with hydrophobic fabric that maximizes evaporative cooling of the human body by maintaining perspiration and moisture at the surface of the skin whereby heat is more readily transferred from the skin by evaporative cooling thereby providing more effective core temperature regulation. The fabric may be natural or synthetic fiber or fiber blends having hydrophobic (e.g. water resistant) characteristics. The fabric is used to produce performance wear whereby the hydrophobic characteristics provide moisture management function by preventing moisture from migrating from the skin to the fabric. The hydrophobic performance fabrics are also preferably impregnated with antimicrobials, such as antibacterial, anti-odor, and antifungal substances, as well as flame retardant substances. The performance wear may comprise compression wear formed of a blend of polyester and spandex to provide increased movement, comfort, and fit. |

Scent-suppressing fiber to be woven into articles of clothing or other equipment formed of fabric to inhibit or eliminate the emission of scents when the wearer is in the vicinity of wildlife. The fiber is a conventional thread coated with carbon. A fabric sheet is formed completely of woven carbon scent-suppressing fibers, or alternatively may be formed of carbon scent-suppressing fibers interwoven with conventional fibers. The resulting fabric sheet is formed into articles of clothing to suppress scent emission that highly sensitive wild creatures can detect. Because the fiber is structurally a part of the clothing article, its cost is less than if the scent-suppressing fiber were applied superficially, as in a sandwich type layering system. Also, because the fiber is continuously present in the material, the scent-suppressing capability covers the entire garment and is not limited only to large surface areas. |

A mask placeable over at least one respiratory organ of a user for the blocking out of unpleasant odors which includes an air-permeable body with a scenting means which is secured to the inner surface of the mask by a pocket securing portion. After the mask has been position within the hands and the fingers of the user, the scenting means which is a part of the mask can be broken by applying pressure, then releasing the scent or fragrance within the scented portion. Upon inhalation by the use, the scent of fragrance can overcome the otherwise foul smelling air being drawn into the mask's air-permeable body. Preferably, a plurality of scented portions of different fragrances can be chosen to be placed within the mask body. Thus considering the different environments or areas of use of the mask, this makes the application thereof very versatile in administrating fragrances to a user, making the process of breathing, more desirable in blocking out unpleasant odors. |

A flexible material allows for the controlled release of a microencapsulated substance. One element of the material is interwoven fibers. A second element is means for passing a current and generating localized heating interspersed among the fibers. A third element is at least one microcapsule, situated on or within the interwoven fibers and means for passing a current, containing a substance and releasing said substance upon rupture due to localized heating generated by selectively heating the means for passing a current. A fourth element is a means for controlling the current passed through the means for passing a current to enable controlled localized heating. |

In one embodiment of the invention, a garment includes a fabric with a plurality of pores. The pores have a size capable of permitting a given liquid with a surface tension below the critical surface tension of the fabric when treated with a fluorochemical to pass through the fabric. The fabric has an occluding composition applied thereto which prevent passage of the given liquid through the pores while allowing vapor passage through the pores. Other embodiments of the invention include specific constituents of the occluding composition and other compositions that may be applied to a garment. Further embodiments of the invention include garments, fabrics, fabric based articles, and methods for making such articles that include a composition to alter the properties of the fabric. |

Thomas Wayne Vickers |
Odor-absorbing articles of clothing particularly useful for hunting big game animals wherein the clothing incorporates an intermediate odor-absorbing layer or sheet of material comprising non-woven synthetic fibers impregnated with activated carbon powdered particles. The relatively low cost odor-absorbing sheet possesses a flexible, readily pliant characteristic which permits its incorporation into an article of hunting clothing to preserve the required comfort to the wearer. The odor-absorbing sheet includes a binder which upon drying, adheres the carbon particles to the synthetic fibers without causing the sheet to become stiff and unpliant. The preferred activated carbon loading is about 100 to 200 weight percent of the weight of the non-woven sheet material. |

A disposable plastic clean up glove is economical to manufacture and easy to use and is made from two sheets of thermo setting plastic sheets joined together by heat sealing into shape and perforated for easy detachment. A fastener cut extends along the outside of the cuff portion and a tie strip extends along the fastener. Once an object is picked up using the glove, the glove is turned inside out to form a container and the fastener closed. The tie strip may be closed for double security and an aroma bubble located on the outside of the glove, now inside of the container, is burst to disinfect and deodorize the held contents. |

The invention relates to a PVC plastic having long-lasting fragrance, which contains a base PVC and at least one soap fragrance oil, wherein the base PVC is phthalate-free and the fragrance oil is incorporated in a quantity of at least 15 % by weight based on the base PVC as softener. The soap fragrance oils are very compatible with PVC good and can be incorporated in a relatively large quantity. The soap fragrance oils do not migrate very much, such that the fragrance is de facto permanently anchored in the PVC. The PVC plastic can be processed to produce shaped bodies, for example by injection moulding. The most varied products may contain such shaped bodies or the PVC plastic or may be connected thereto. The invention generally relates to the use of fragrance oils as softener for phthalate-free PVC. |
