The Fire Taking Cotton Flame Retardant Fabric Style Test and Analysis

Abstract:

This study selected the six cotton flame retardant fabrics, respectively, as a fire taking waterproof moisture permeable layer and comfortable fabric with fabric KES - FB fabric style instrument test study of mechanical performance under low stress, Respectively for three kinds of laminating fabrics and three kinds of non-laminating fabric fabrics were analyzed, and the results indicate: As waterproof and moisture permeable layer in the fire service, the effect of flame retardant canvas fabric style for the three best; By contrast to the non-laminating fabric, cotton antistatic fabric can be seen the best taking performance. If follow-up studies, the outer layer and the insulating layer to select a better flame retardant properties of materials (e.g. PBO fabric as the outer layer, aramid 1313 as the insulating layer), can be considered as an anti-static fabric with a cotton inner layer to improve wearing comfort.
