Moisture Permeability Test and Analysis of the Fire Taking Cotton Multilayer Fabric System

Abstract:

This article about the moisture permeability test system of fire taking five outer fabric and five kinds of multi-layer fabric. Screening of fire suit multi-layer fabrics system, the water vapor permeability and fabric structure parameters of correlation analysis. The experimental results showed that, 3 # multi-layer fabric system is the best choice of the fire fighting service; Fabric thickness and i the square meter gram weight is inversely proportional to the fabric moisture permeability relationship; For the effect of PTFE membrane laminated fabric to fabric itself can also through the amount of water vapor has certain influence. While ensuring waterproof, Moisture permeability fabric may be appropriate to increase the resistance, in order to protect the user's comfort.
