ANALYSIS: THERMAL PERFORMANCE

STATE: HEAT_DISSIPATION

Mesh caps utilize open-cell polyester grids. Airflow enters rear quadrants. Sweat evaporates via convection. Cooling effect: Positive.
Solid caps utilize closed-cell fabric. Airflow blocked by material density. Heat traps within crown. Cooling effect: Negative.

STATE: MOISTURE_MANAGEMENT

Mesh: Synthetic fibers repel water absorption. Quick-dry status: Active.
Solid: Natural fibers absorb sweat. Saturation status: High. Weight increases with moisture.

STATE: UV_EXPOSURE

Mesh: 40% scalp exposure through rear grid. UV penetration risk: Present.
Solid: 100% scalp coverage. UV penetration risk: Minimal.
