How to choose high-quality and inexpensive fire retardant fabrics?

Usually when people think of Fireproof fabrics, the first thing they think of is fabrics that cannot be fired, but it is actually incorrect. Fireproof fabrics do not catch fire. It will go out immediately after leaving the flame, and there are corresponding flame retardant standards, such as EN11611, EN11612, EN61482, EN20471, EN1149, etc. Therefore, the purchase and selection of flame-retardant fabrics cannot be the same as ordinary products. The purchase of this functional fabric also requires a certain process. Yulong Textile summarized the detailed process of selecting flame-retardant fabrics.

1. To determine the application field and the function of the fabric, the first thing to determine is whether the flame retardant fabric you want to purchase is applied to that field, whether it is flame retardant tooling or decorative flame retardant fabric. Also make sure that the function of the flame-retardant fabric you want to buy is only flame-retardant or requires other functions, such as anti-static, oil-proof and waterproof.

2. Determine the composition of the fabric, and the flame-retardant fabric is divided according to the composition
1. All cotton products: 100% cotton knitted and woven series;
2. Polyester/cotton products: T/C 65/35 80/20
3. CVC products: C/T 80/20 85/15 70/30
4. C/N products: 88/12
5. Aramid products: Aramid ШA 93/5/2

If you are not sure of the composition, you can send samples to the manufacturer. Professional manufacturers can analyze the composition of the fabric.

3. Flame retardant effect. Flame retardant fabrics are divided into two types: natural fiber flame retardant and post-finish flame retardant. Post-finish flame retardant is divided into one-time and durable flame retardant.

Fiber flame retardant is also called washable flame retardant fabric. The fiber has a flame-retardant effect before weaving, and it is inherently flame-retardant, and the washing effect is more than 50 times. Such as aramid flame retardant fabrics, acrylic cotton flame retardant fabrics, etc. Usually used for clothing fabrics.

Disposable flame retardant fabrics are ordinary fabrics that are treated with flame retardants in the later dyeing and finishing. Its major disadvantage is that the flame retardant effect disappears or significantly declines after washing. Usually we use it in some occasions with less washing times. Such as hotel curtains.

Durable flame-retardant fabrics use flame retardants for cotton fibers and their blended fabrics. The main feature is that after using this flame retardant to produce and finish, the fabric can have good flame retardancy within 50 washes. It is also used in clothing fabrics.

four. The last and more important thing is how to check the quality of the flame-retardant fabric. A professional manufacturer with a professional flame-retardant fabric testing room is required. Each batch of fabric produced can be tested for quality by itself. Of course, the professional test report of the fabric is also indispensable. .

With the above four points, I believe you can buy high-quality and inexpensive fireproof fabric products
