How to choose flame retardant clothes fabric

First of all, let's understand the flame retardant principle of flame retardant work clothes.

Flame-retardant work clothes are protective clothing that can prevent itself from being ignited, flaming and smoldering after contact with flames and hot objects. It is suitable for workers who are engaged in operations with open flames, sparks, molten metal accessories, and places with flammable substances and fire hazards.

Good-quality flame-retardant work clothes must have the following characteristics to ensure that employees are comfortable, safe and at ease when wearing them. Enterprises should also keep their eyes open when ordering. Choosing a good work uniform can not only make employees comfortable to wear, but also be full of energy and shape the corporate image. It is the best of both worlds! Similarly, business units that make flame-retardant work clothes should also think about what customers think, and help customers choose materials according to their needs to achieve a win-win situation.

Next, we mainly talk about the selection details of fabrics.

High-quality flame-retardant work clothes have permanent heat resistance and flame retardancy in the selection of fabrics, so that the flame will not help burning when the flame is close or burning, reducing the risk factor, and can not help burning (aramid flame-retardant fabric Can be used as a reference) and the flame retardant function is permanent and will not reduce the performance of flame retardant work clothes due to the impact of washing or use times. High-quality flame-retardant work clothes not only have the function of flame retardancy, but also are resistant to chemicals such as acids, alkalis, and organic solvents to a certain extent. When encountering a fire hazard, the high-strength and low-elongation bulletproof fibers contained in the fabric can automatically and rapidly expand in an instant, making the fabric thicker and denser, and will not produce molten droplets due to high-temperature burning, thus forming a better protection for the human body. The protective layer has good wearing performance. The unique capillary surface layer design of the fabric can quickly diffuse the moisture on the surface of the clothes to achieve the effect of evaporation, heat dissipation and cooling, making employees comfortable to wear.

Of course, there are also some post-treated flame-retardant fabrics such as cotton flame-retardant fabrics on the market. However, for petrochemical, metallurgy and other fields, the flame-retardant properties of post-treated flame-retardant fabrics are lost or even lost after repeated washing. It happens from time to time that the weight of the fabric is relatively high, and the air permeability is generally stuffy when worn. The burning of the fabric will be accompanied by a certain amount of molten droplets. The work clothes made are too bulky, which is not conducive to the employees' work. The advantage is low cost, but this kind of fabric is mainly suitable for some civilian enterprises that have general flame retardant properties for work clothes.

Flame-retardant protective clothing made of permanent flame-retardant fabrics has a series of physical and chemical properties such as washing resistance and wear resistance. Because the material itself has flame-retardant properties, it will not reduce its flame-retardant properties due to washing. Its wear life is 3-5 times that of general cotton flame-retardant clothing. At the same time, it should be noted that in the process of making flame-retardant protective clothing, sewing threads, zippers, buttons, pocket cloth, Velcro and other accessories should all be made of flame-retardant materials. This is a point that many friends who are just starting to make flame-retardant work clothes tend to overlook.
