With the rapid development of textile technology, my country’s flame-retardant textiles have also made great progress in recent years and presented different development trend.

Functional composite

In addition to the early flame-retardant and heat-proof textiles, flame-retardant functional textiles In addition to radiation, flame retardant and antistatic, in recent years new requirements have been put forward according to different application places of textile fabrics, such as curtains, curtains, etc. used in humid environments such as bathrooms. In addition to flame retardant, they are also required to be mildew-proof and water-repellent; Fabrics such as clothing, sofas and bed sheets are required to be flame retardant and also have health care functions. In the military field, camouflage materials for combat uniforms and military equipment are not only required to be flame retardant, but also have anti-counterfeiting functions. In my country, the research on flame-retardant and antistatic textiles is relatively mature, and there is also research on flame-retardant, water-repellent and oil-repellent products. The development of textiles with health care functions deserves attention.

Green environmental protection

The greening of flame retardant fibers refers to reducing production The process has a toxic effect on the environment and operators, and prevents the fibers from having adverse effects on the wearer. When a fire occurs, there will be no “secondary poisoning”. This is because the flame retardants used in flame retardant fibers generally contain halogen, phosphorus, sulfur and other elements, most of which are highly toxic and will have a certain toxic effect on operators during the synthesis of flame retardants and fiber production. The discharge of “three wastes” will cause serious environmental pollution. From the perspectives of environmental protection, human safety and flame retardant efficiency, it is the future development trend to develop environmentally friendly flame retardant textiles that are halogen-free, efficient, low-smoke and low-toxic. As a typical halogen-free flame retardant, silicone flame retardants have the characteristics of high efficiency, non-toxicity, low smoke and no pollution, and have the characteristics of improved dispersion and processing performance.

High-tech

High-tech fibers are needed with the development of high-tech industries A series of high-performance, high-functional fibers have been developed. High-tech fibers have applied and developed a series of new technologies in the production process, such as electrospinning, gel spinning, membrane split spinning, liquid crystal spinning, centrifugal spinning, etc., bringing new life to the synthetic fiber industry. High-tech high-temperature flame-retardant fiber is an important branch. Due to its unique chemical structure, high-tech flame-retardant fiber does not need to add flame retardants or modifications, and has high-temperature flame-retardant properties. Such as polyacrylonitrile preoxidized fiber (OPANF), polybenzimidazole (PBI) fiber, polyisophthalidediamine (MPIA) fiber, melamine formal fiber (MF), etc.

Comfortable flame-retardant fiber

Under high temperature, strong heat radiation and open flame In such an environment, workers must wear flame-retardant protective clothing or thermal protective clothing. Under the above conditions, the human thermal load is too high and it is difficult to maintain normal work performance for a long time. Therefore, for flame-retardant textiles, the comfort of the textile must be taken into consideration. For flame-retardant fibers, flame-retardant performance, spinnability and thermal and moisture comfort properties should be taken into consideration.

The flame-retardant fabrics produced by City Textile mainly include cotton flame-retardant fabrics and CVC flame-retardant fabrics, Cotton nylon flame retardant fabric and other Durable flame retardant fabric as well as aramid 1313, aramid 1414 and aramid IIIA, Modified acrylic cotton flame retardant fabricetc.Permanent flame retardant fabric. The flame-retardant functional composite fabrics produced by City Textile mainly include flame-retardant anti-static fabrics, flame-retardant fluorescent fabrics, and flame-retardant waterproof fabrics Etc.
