Myoflex

Myoflex was a modified sheet of plastic that was produced in the first years of the New Republic. The plastic was best known for its use in heat dispersion. The inventor Hogar used myoflex to cover the main temperature sensor on the HR-211 powersuit, fooling the cooling unit into thinking it was hotter than it actually was and causing it to run more. This brought down the internal temperature of the suit, making it more comfortable to wear for long periods.
