Abstract:
Provided is a flame resistant fabric comprising a fabric substrate comprising cellulosic fibers and thermoplastic fibers, and a finish applied to the fabric substrate comprising a tetrahydroxymethyl phosphonium salt or a condensate thereof, a cross-linking agent, a brominated compound, and optionally a melamine resin. Also provided are methods of preparing the flame resistant fabric.
Abstract:
The present invention is a luminous fabric and garment that have excellent luminescent properties under conditions of poor lighting, that lose their luminescent properties only slightly due to wear degradation and the like during prolonged use, that have the same color tone and design as regular fabrics and garments during day use, and that possess excellent aesthetic qualities and are free from design limitations.
Abstract:
Polyether urethane foams that are heat laminatable are prepared by incorporating within the foam an effective amount of an organophosphorus additive. This organophosphorus additive can be an organophosphite, an organophosphonate, an organophosphate, and a mixture thereof. This foam can also include an halogenated flame retardant.
Abstract:
A polyester product is treated with a treatment liquid containing at least one of dibromophenyl derivatives represented by the following general formula: ##STR1## wherein Y is --SO.sub.2 -- or --C(CH.sub.3).sub.2 --, each of R.sub.1 and R.sub.2 is --H, --CH.sub.3, --C.sub.2 H.sub.5, --C.sub.3 H.sub.7 OH, --CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 Br or --(CH.sub.2 CH.sub.2 O).sub.n H and n is a positive integer of from 1 to 9 to obtain a flame retardant polyester fiber product. The polyester product may be further treated with an oligomer of vinyl phosphonate which is present either in the above treatment liquid with the dibromophenyl derivative or in a separate treatment bath from the above treatment liquid.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method for manufacturing a composite yarn of paper, e.g., traditional Korean paper, and a composite yarn manufactured thereby, a method for manufacturing a fabric using the same and an automotive interior material manufactured thereby. More particularly, the present invention relates to a method for manufacturing a composite yarn of traditional Korean paper by using a traditional Korean paper yarn and a synthetic yarn, in which the composite yarn can be used in weaving and knitting, and a method for manufacturing a fabric as an automotive interior material using the same. Accordingly, the present invention provides a method for manufacturing a composite yarn of paper, comprising twisting a tape-type paper yarn, and covering the twisted paper yarn as a ground yarn at least two strands of synthetic yarn as an effect yarn to manufacture a composite yarn of paper of 160˜700 denier.
Abstract:
A filler cloth includes cellulosic fibers treated with a flame retardant chemistry such that the filler cloth has a char length of less than about nine inches when tested in accordance with NFPA 701, such that thermal shrinkage of the filler cloth at 400° F. is less than about 35% in any direction, and such that the filler cloth maintains flame and heat resistant integrity when impinged with a gas flame in accordance with testing protocols set forth in Technical Bulletin 603 of the State of California Department of Consumer Affairs. The filler cloth cellulosic fibers are treated with a flame retardant chemistry such that the filler cloth has a Frazier air permeability of less than about 400 cfm and a thermal resistance rating of at least about 3 when tested according to NFPA 2112.
Abstract:
A mattress including a side panel structure incorporating a foam layer treated with intumescent flame retardant composition to provide substantially improved flame resistance. The foam layer is free from brominated compounds and retains pliability.
