Application of flame retardant clothes in petroleum industry

2021-01-16

At present, the most commonly used work clothes in domestic oil fields are general cotton work clothes, anti-static clothes and flame retardant clothes. Ordinary pure cotton work clothes are equivalent to everyday clothes, and cannot play a role in the prevention and protection of deflagration. Anti-static clothing can prevent deflagration caused by electric sparks, while flame-retardant clothing has a certain protective effect on deflagration, but the anti-static and flame-retardant properties of these two kinds of clothing will weaken with washing or wearing. Once ignited by a deflagration flame, it will aggravate the burn. Because the protective performance of flame-retardant clothing is affected by many factors in addition to the choice of fabric, such as the design of flame-retardant clothing, the most commonly used work clothes in domestic oil fields are general cotton work clothes, anti-static clothing and flame-retardant clothing. Ordinary pure cotton work clothes are equivalent to everyday clothes, and cannot play a role in the prevention and protection of deflagration. Anti-static clothing can prevent deflagration caused by electric sparks, while flame-retardant clothing has a certain protective effect on deflagration, but the anti-static and flame-retardant properties of these two kinds of clothing will weaken with washing or wearing. Once ignited by a deflagration flame, it will aggravate the burn.  In addition to the choice of fabric, the protective performance of flame-retardant clothing is also affected by many factors, such as the design of flame-retardant clothing and the accessories used, including stitches, zippers, reflective tapes, and so on. In terms of design, the skin surface should be covered as much as possible, such as not using a lapel design, to improve the overall safety of flame-retardant clothing, and it is recommended to use flame-retardant stitches and zippers to prevent flame-retardant clothing from burning due to accessories when encountering deflagration. The whole piece of clothing ruptured, causing the wearer to be directly exposed to the flame and fail to provide the necessary protection. In addition, you need to pay attention to some details when wearing flame-retardant clothing. For example, you should choose flame-retardant clothing with a suitable size and slightly loose. Too small a size will greatly affect the comfort of wearing and affect the flexibility of operation; When flame-retardant clothes do not open the collar, do not roll up the sleeves, and clean the oil stains of the flame-retardant clothes, etc., to ensure that the flame-retardant clothes can play the best role. With the development of the national economy, the improvement of the legal system, and the increasing awareness of personal health and protection, especially the increasingly frequent international cooperation and exchanges between petroleum and petrochemical companies, and the increasing awareness of safety, flame-retardant clothing will become more popular among Chinese petroleum and petrochemical companies.
