Development trend of flame retardant fiber

At the academic forum with the theme of “development direction of flame retardant fiber” held in March this year, experts, scholars, University and enterprise representatives agreed that the future flame retardant fiber should develop in the direction of “performance improvement and price reduction”

as a flame retardant fiber, thermal protection fiber has three characteristics: safety, functionality and comfort. From the safety point of view, the fiber can form the protection integration: this kind of fiber is made of natural raw materials, and the flame retardant medium is implanted in the cross section of the whole fiber, so that it becomes an integral flame retardant fiber, which belongs to the intrinsic flame retardant. Lenzingfr fiber is environmentally friendly, and this flame retardant medium will not be removed by washing or friction. This feature makes it essentially different from some flame retardant viscose fibers

functionally, it can protect the wearer from burns: we know that high-risk professionals who are vulnerable to burns need to wear special protective clothing. 1f 15% of people’s skin is burned, the result may also be fatal. Thermal protection fiber can protect skin from heat injury through its synthetic flame retardant medium, which is different from other high-performance flame retardant fibers

from the comfort point of view, the thermal protection fiber fabric has good air permeability, moisture absorption and skin affinity, which are important components of excellent flame retardant protective clothing. On the one hand, these properties also greatly reduce the risk of thermal cramping and thermal stress for lenzingfr fiber, Lanjing thermal protective fiber can protect the wearer from grad2.3 burn in emergency. On the other hand, for the special clothing to prevent the radiation heat, because the thermal protection fiber fabric is in the form of aluminum plating, it can not only prevent the extreme radiation heat, but also improve the comfort of the wearer, and further prevent the adverse effects of thermal cramps and thermal stress

in fact, each kind of flame retardant fiber has its own advantages and disadvantages, and learning from each other is the main idea of developing flame retardant fiber in the future. On the premise of ensuring the normal durability of the fabric, the comfort of the fabric should be improved. This requires us to consider the overall design of fabric, choose different kinds of fiber materials at different prices to learn from each other. At present, the most popular flame-retardant fabrics in China are blended with 2-3 kinds of fibers. 1n the future, five or even six kinds of fibers can be considered for blending. Only by making full use of the different properties of different fibers, can we produce high-performance fabrics with more reasonable performance and price

at present, the vast majority of enterprises engaged in the development of flame retardant textiles in China are lack of independent innovation ability, and most of their products come from the copy of foreign fabrics, which leads to the low technology content of domestic flame retardant fabrics and no competitive advantage in the world. However, due to the consideration of China’s actual situation, our enterprises can not use high cost flame retardant fabrics. For example, many firefighters in the United States use PB1 fiber blended fabrics, whose flame retardant and heat insulation properties are recognized by everyone, but the price is expensive, which makes it impossible to widely use in domestic fields. This requires our textile enterprises to take independent innovation, reduce the cost of fabric, reduce the burden of production costs as the main idea of product development
