Subject: I found one paragraph re patients ...sm
not sure but I found one paragraph thru google about dacron wool........being used on a patient:
Once cooling to -79 C was complete the patient was lifted out of the Silcool bath, the outer, Silcool wetted plastic bag was stripped off and the patient was placed within a polyester cloth bag which was in turn placed inside a standard aluminum neurocan which had been precooled to -90 and packed with dacron
wool. Temperature probes were left externalized to the neurocan for subsequent cooling to -196 C.
I don't really think this is going to help you though but I tried!!
