Everyone knows that flame-retardant fabrics are also divided into grades, so how to correctly judge the performance of flame-retardant fabrics? Let me analyze it for you today.
Extreme oxygen index method: Put the flame-retardant fabric sample into a transparent combustion barrel. There is an upward flow of oxygen and nitrogen in the barrel, ignite the sample, and observe the burning phenomenon and the burning time and damage of the flame-retardant fabric. length. The next step is to measure the performance of the flame-retardant fabric. The oxygen index is the oxygen required by the flame-retardant fabric when it burns. If more oxygen is needed, it means the fabric is more difficult to burn. The volume concentration of oxygen in the air is approximately 21%. If the oxygen index is less than 20%, it is a flammable fiber; if the oxygen index is between 20% and 26%, it is a flammable fiber; if the oxygen index is between 26% and 34%, it is a flame-retardant fiber; if the oxygen index is above 35%, it is non-flammable. fiber.
Another method is the combustion test method: according to the relative position of the sample and the flame, it can be divided into vertical method, 45 degree method and horizontal method. The vertical method is generally used for flame retardant properties of clothing fabrics, decorative fabrics, tent fabrics, etc.; the 45-degree tilt method is suitable for interior decoration fabrics in aircraft; the horizontal method is suitable for carpets and other matting fabrics and automobile interior fabrics. Judgment is based on the burning rate of the fabric: after the fabric is in contact with the flame for a certain period of time according to the prescribed method, the flame is removed, and the time for the fabric’s afterburning and smoldering and the damage length of the fabric are measured. The shorter the afterburning and smoldering time and the lower the damage length, the better the flame retardant performance of the fabric.
Independently research and develop flame-retardant fabrics. According to different requirements of customers, the following specifications are available: 210D, 300D, 420D, 600D, 900D, 1200D, 1680D Oxford cloth, etc., which have temporary flame-retardant effects. Semi-durable flame retardant effect and durable flame retardant effect can also be provided with waterproof, flame retardant, PVC/PU coating, silver coating, composite and other treatments according to customer needs.
