How to choose flame retardant workwear fabric
Flame retardant workwear use fabrics with flame retardant effect. The principle of flame retardant is that the fabric is divided into fiber flame retardant or finishing flame retardant. After achieving the flame retardant effect, the fiber will greatly slow down the burning speed. It can extinguish itself immediately after opening, and the burning part does not produce molten droplets, which reduces or avoids burns and scalds, so as to achieve the purpose of protection.
Flame retardant clothing mainly adopts heat insulation, flame retardancy, and non-melting droplet carbonization isolation to protect workers from open flames or heat sources. Adding flame retardant to the fabric is to make the fabric have flame retardant function after processing, which is called finishing flame retardant. Common fabrics are pure cotton, polyester cotton, cotton nylon, etc. The other is that the fabric itself has a flame retardant effect, such as aramid, acrylic cotton and other materials, also known as intrinsically flame retardant. The performance of flame retardant work clothes is very important, especially comfort, flame retardancy and high temperature shrinkage. Only by integrating these three functions into flame-retardant clothing fabrics can better protection be provided.
Which fabric is more flame retardant? In fact, both have their own advantages and disadvantages. If you only consider the cost, it is suitable to choose flame retardant fabrics after finishing. But from the perspective of protection, intrinsic flame retardant has irreplaceable advantages, and permanent flame retardant fabrics have better flame retardant properties. After being washed several times with water, it will not lose its flame retardant properties. It also has the advantages of wear resistance, high temperature resistance, water washing resistance, corrosion resistance, arc prevention, and antistatic. The protection function is more comprehensive and can effectively protect the safety of workers. .
