What are the flame retardant standards for Polyester Fabric Flame Retardant?
The fire protection standard for polyester fabrics is widely regarded in contemporary industry and civil use. According to the laws and regulations of the country, the following numbers are detailed:
First, the American standard is quite influential, such as NFPA 701. This standard is an important law for national fabrics. In the test, the spinning is burned with an open flame to check the flame spread speed and residual time. If it is lower than the established value, it is judged to be qualified. In addition, CFR Title 16 Part 1610 is a requirement for clothing fabrics. The law stipulates that after the fabric is exposed to fire, it must be automatically extinguished within the specified time limit and cannot be extended to burn.
European and American countries also have their own regulations. European EN 13773 and EN ISO 6940/6941, graded to evaluate the flame resistance of fabrics. EN 13773 is numbered according to the fifth grade, and the first grade is the best fire protection. The test is divided into vertical and horizontal combustion tests to test the length of damage and smoldering time. The British BS 5867 is specially formulated for curtains and wall coverings, subdivided into B and C grades, and the damage and dripping matter are checked in detail. There is also the German DIN 4102 specification, and the B1 category is the flame retardant standard, which is especially adopted by construction and exhibition materials.
In China, GB 8624, GB/T 5455, GB/T 5454, etc. are the main ones. GB 8624 grades the combustion performance of fabrics, with A grade being refractory and B grade second. GB/T 5455 is the vertical method, which measures the flame spread, smoldering, residual carbon and other durations. Different uses may have GB/T 17591, GB/T 20286 and other refined standards.
Anyone who wants to make qualified polyester flame retardant products should choose the corresponding regulations according to the region and use, and test its limiting oxygen index, combustion rate, residual length, dripping characteristics and smoke density and other factors. Multiple samples are tested by statutory institutions, and the verified data are circulated in the city.
Today's fire protection standards are precise, and their science is to ensure safety. Living in a lawsuit or manufacturing place, it is necessary to strictly abide by the law to prevent problems before they occur. Yes, the use of clothing, construction, transportation, and exhibitions is based on formal standards, so that the flame retardant performance of polyester fabrics can be perfected, which is for the peace of the people and the blessing of the state family.
What are the main application fields of Polyester Fabric Flame Retardant?
Polyester flame retardant fabric is made of modern technology, and the material is tough and flame retardant. Its application field is wide, especially for quilts, tents, curtains, home accessories, transportation, industrial facilities and public places. In terms of clothing, it is mostly used in professional uniforms, fire uniforms, military and police equipment, which not only maintains its shape, but also prevents fires. Tabernacle curtains, hotels, halls, conference halls and theaters all use their flame retardant safety capabilities to ensure everyone's safety. In home decoration, curtains, sofas, sheets, cushions, etc., are made of polyester flame retardant cloth to prevent the spread of fire and protect the peace of the home.
In the field of transportation, seats, interiors and curtains of aviation, railway, subway and bus vehicles all depend on their fire protection properties, so passengers can travel safely. In the industrial field, petroleum, chemical, electronics and other factories, permanent machinery and equipment covers and isolation curtains are used to prevent the spread of flames. Warehousing and logistics, shelf coverage and cargo packaging are also frequently used to prevent fires. Medical and health institutions, ward sheets, surgical curtains, take into account the dual needs of disinfection and fire protection, and polyester flame retardant fabrics are also preferred.
In addition, children's toys, outdoor camps, and exhibition display racks also benefit from the fire protection power of this cloth. All kinds of large-scale events, performing arts venues, and temporary facilities tent curtains are clearly flame retardant, and polyester flame retardant cloth is the first choice, which is used to calm the hearts of everyone. Push its origin, because polyester is tough and firm by nature, and treated with flame retardants, it can maintain flame retardant function for a long time, and it is not easy to damage its effect when washed for daily use. It is also cheap and high-quality, easy to dye, simple production process, and the market demand is booming. It has become an indispensable choice in the field of modern security protection and public safety. Many industries rely on its blessing to prevent micro-suffering and protect people's lives and property.
What should be paid attention to when cleaning and maintaining Polyester Fabric Flame Retardants?
Polyester Fabric Flame Retardant, translated as polyester flame retardant cloth, its material is mainly polyester fiber, and the flame retardant agent is applied to the surface or fused into the fiber to prevent the spread of flame. In order to ensure its long-term good effect, cleaning and maintenance are especially important. This method is written as described on the left:
Polyester flame retardant cloth, avoid soaking in high-temperature hot water. Hot water is vulnerable to flame retardants, which halves its fire resistance. It is best to use warm or cold water, wash it gently by hand, and do not use force to rub it to protect the fiber from damage. The detergent must be mild, and those that are neutral and phosphorus-free are the most suitable. If chlorine-containing and strongly alkaline soaps are used, the agent is easy to lose and the flame retardant performance is greatly reduced. When washing, it should be shaken away in advance, and should not be mixed with colored clothes to prevent dyeing from infiltrating and damaging the appearance.
After washing, do not twist strongly, gently squeeze water, and drip dry naturally. Avoid exposure to the hot sun, it is advisable to hang in a ventilated and cool place to dry. Violent sunlight is easy to catalyze the decomposition of the agent, and it will remove its flame retardant effect for a long time. If the dryer needs to be used, the temperature should not be too high. Always abide by the principle of low temperature, and be cautious as before.
During normal use, do not approach oil stains and organic solvents. Grease, gasoline, alcohol, acetone, etc. meet with flame retardants, or cause chemical reactions, which can damage the power of flame prevention. If it is accidentally contaminated, it should be removed with a mild detergent in time, and do not leave stains for a When storing, choose a dry and clean place, away from heat sources and direct sunlight, suitable for stacking or hanging; if there is a backlog of heavy objects, it will be deformed for a long time, and it will also hurt its use.
To sum up, the maintenance of polyester flame retardant cloth depends on caution. Wash gently, dry moderately, avoid hot sun and high temperature, isolate organic solutions, and store it well for daily ventilation. Following these numbers, its flame retardant effect can be preserved for a long time. In this way, over the years, it has been used for a long time, its appearance is fresh, and the benefits are constant.
What is the environmental performance of Polyester Fabric Flame Retardant?
Polyester fiber flame retardant fabrics are commonly used in the fields of clothing, furniture, and transportation in this world. When studying its environmental performance, the first consideration should be given to its raw materials, production, application, and waste. Polyester, a petroleum chemical, is recyclable and recyclable, which is more environmentally friendly than other synthetic fibers. However, flame retardant treatment mostly uses chemicals containing bromine, phosphorus, and nitrogen. Although its addition can greatly improve the flame resistance of fabrics, it may also hide environmental burdens.
During production, if simple and conventional flame retardants are used, there may be a risk of harmful substances seeping out, polluting water and soil, and harming life. Existing environmentally friendly flame retardant processes, mostly halogen-free or organophosphorus flame retardants, have better biodegradability and reduce ecological pressure. If nano-flame retardant materials or polymer self-flame retardant technology are used, the use of additives can also be reduced, and the trend is green and low-carbon.
However, the flame retardant fabric of polyester fiber is completed, and it can be burned or covered by soil. If burned, toxic gases will escape, such as carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, etc. Harmful to human and animal health. Even if incinerated at high temperatures, some flame retardants may decompose into persistent organic pollutants, endangering the atmosphere. If discarded in soil, the polyester fiber itself is difficult to degrade naturally, and the flame retardant may also penetrate over time. In modern technology, resource recycling and comprehensive utilization are emphasized. If effective recycling and regeneration can be achieved, the harm of waste can be greatly reduced.
To cover the environmental protection of polyester fiber flame retardant fabrics, the emphasis is on the selection and disposal of flame retardants. If green flame retardant technology can be promoted and the recycling system can be improved, it will be more beneficial; if it is arbitrarily placed and disposed of inappropriately, the harm of pollution cannot be ignored. To sum up, this thing is neither good nor evil. The most important thing is to use it wisely and supervise its whole life cycle in order to achieve both environmental protection and efficiency.
Can Polyester Fabric Flame Retardant be customized in different colors and thicknesses?
The flame retardant fabric of polyester fiber is actually produced by today's exquisite craftsmanship and is widely used in various fields. This fabric is tough in nature, wear-resistant and fireproof, and is highly valued. However, when customers come, they often want to ask: Can you customize those with different colors and thicknesses?
The reason is that it depends on the method of making cloth. Before polyester fiber is made into cloth, the modern process mostly uses dyes to dye its yarn. The dyeing method includes stock solution coloring and post-treatment dyeing. For the coloring of stock solution, the dye is mixed when spinning, so that the color is deeply planted in the fiber. This method has uniform color, long-lasting and non-fading, and is suitable for bright or special colors. Or plain or color, can be customized according to customer's wishes. After the post-treatment dyeing, after the fabric is made, it is dipped and dyed. Although the penetration of the dye is not as firm as the former, the color is changeable, and it can also be selected in a variety of ways, and the function is not inferior.
The thickness of the cloth also varies with the production method. When weaving, the thickness and density of the yarn are different, and the thickness of the fabric is different. Or as light as silk, or as stable as felt, it can be made. For those with special needs, if they want to take into account the properties of flame retardancy, waterproofing, and breathability, they can also apply coating and film-coating techniques after weaving to make the fabric more complete.
As for the flame retardant effect, the flame retardant is added to the fiber raw material, the chemical composition is integrated into the yarn, or the flame retardant agent is sprayed after the cloth is finished. Whether it is dyeing or thickness customization, as long as the flame retardant formula is not hindered by the main purpose, the safety performance will not be inferior. Today's workshop has all kinds of exquisite skills, accepts all kinds of customization requirements, and can be tailored according to customer wishes.
Dyeing and thickness can be determined on demand; flame retardant performance can also be the same. However, if the color needs to be extremely rare, or the thickness is too large, you can discuss the process with the manufacturer in detail. However, in general, today's polyester flame retardant cloth has brilliant colors and variable thickness. It can be customized as you wish.
In summary, polyester flame retardant cloth can be customized in color and thickness, with a wide variety of colors, random thickness, and reliable flame retardant performance. Customers need to be informed that the workshop can refine it by itself, and there is no problem.
