The Study of Textile Finishing for Flame Retardance of Polyester Fabrics

【Supercategory:3. Textile Category:3.3 Functional processing Subcategory:3.3.1 Processing technology

We studied textile finishing for flame retardance using phosphazene emulsion as non-halogene flame retarder with less harmful to environment. For continuous finishing to add polyester fabrics flame retardance using phosphazene emulsion with heating at 120℃ and 5 minutes. The fabrics of pale color (dyestuff concentration was below 0.1%owf) indicated flame retardance enugh for interior products. By batchwise finishing using phosphazene emulsion of 0.33wt% enabled to add flame retardancy to the fabrics with the concentration of dyestuff below 3%o.w.f.. Finishing of flame retardant used in this study uninfluenced of color fastness and were abailable to apply for interior textile products.
