Description
Summary:Fireproofing treatment of knitted fabric made of a blend of wool and Spandex or Fenilon fibres with metal-containing flame retardants (sodium tungstate or potassium hexafluorotitanate) increases the oxygen index to 32.8-53%. Incorporation of titanium compounds in blended material increases its carbonizing power, intensifies the dehydration reaction, and reduces heat release in thermolysis. The fireproofed wool fibre in the material acts as a polymeric flame retardant that decreases discharge of hot gaseous products of thermolysis of multicomponent fibre systems.[PUBLICATION ABSTRACT]
