Abstract:
The present invention relates to a fabric for an airbag which includes polyester fiber, and particularly, to a polyester fabric, the heat resistant constant (x) of which is 1.0 to 6.5 in an uncoated fabric state, to a method for manufacturing the polyester fabric, and to an automotive airbag including the polyester fabric. The fabric of the present invention for an airbag provides good mechanical properties such as high tenacity and high heat resistance, and excellent storability, shape stability and air blocking ability by using a polyester yarn having a low modulus, high strength and high elongation, and minimizes impacts applied to a passenger, thereby enabling the passenger to be safely protected.
Abstract:
A method of forming flame-retardant nonwoven fabrics by hydroentanglement (14 and 22) includes providing a precursor web. The precursor web is subjected to hydroentanglement on a three-dimensional image transfer device (18) to create a patterned and imaged fabric. Treatment with a flame-retardant binder enhances the integrity of the fabric, permitting the nonwoven to exhibit desired physical characteristics, including strength, durability, softness, and drapeability. The treated nonwoven may then be dyed by means applicable to conventional wovens.
Abstract:
A nonwoven fabric with UV stability and flame retardancy having at least one fabric layer. The fabric layer is made of a base resin, preferably polyolefinic, and a non-halogenated melt processable compound that is selected from the group consisting of N-alkyoxy amines and are combined into a homogeneous blend which is then either spunbonded or meltblown to form the fabric layer. A melt processable fluorochemical additive may also be combined into the homogeneous blend to provide liquid barrier properties to the fabric layer.
Abstract:
The flame-retarding properties of polymeric compositions are selectively enhanced, without adversely affecting other properties of these materials to any significant degree, by including in the compositions oligomeric urethanes with high bromine content.
Abstract:

Abstract:
A protective garment for firefighters having a breathable moisture barrier layer film which is does not suffer destruction on exposure to the Thermal Protective Performance Test of the National Fire Protection Association 1971 Standard.
Abstract:
A mattress, foundation, or other upholstered sleep product or article includes a core and barrier material surrounding the core. The barrier material includes flame and heat-resistant material that is configured to prevent combustion of the core when the upholstered article is impinged with a gas flame according to California Technical Bulletin 603 of the State of California Department of Consumer Affairs. The barrier material may include an intumescent material that is configured to swell and char in the presence of a flame so as to form a barrier to the flame and to heat generated by the flame.
Abstract:
A fabric for use in wallcoverings, wall paneling, and ceiling tiles comprising a fabric layer comprising pigmented resin textured glass woven yarn, a stain repellant polymeric fluorocarbon face coating applied to a first side of the fabric layer, and an opaque back coating comprising an acrylic resin applied to a second side of said fabric layer, wherein the fabric is flame retardant, flexible and has substantial dimensional stability and strength. A method of making the fabric is also provided.
Abstract:
Flame resistant fabrics of suitable strength and comfort level for use in apparel applications. The fabrics incorporate yarns utilizing specific blends of (A) halogen containing fibers, (B) silica embedded cellulosic fibers and (C) strength imparting synthetic fibers.
