Abstract

The subject of the invention is a functional textile material (1), wherein the functional textile material (1) comprises a textile backing (2) in the form of a two-dimensional textile formation, and the textile backing (2) is provided with microcapsules (3), which contain at least one active ingredient, and the microcapsules (3) are secured to the textile backing (2) by means of an adhesive (4) applied discontinuously to the textile backing (2). In this way, one obtains a functional textile material (1) with high air-permeability and high water vapor-permeability at reduced basis weight, which material can be used in particular for making functional clothing.
