Durable eco-friendly flame retardant non-woven fabric

Fire retardant nonwoven fabric  specification

Fire retardant nonwoven fabric normally comes in black and white color. It is widely used in mattress and sofa.

Flame retardant mechanism

The main component of polyester flame retardant non-woven fabric is polyester. Polyester fiber belongs to chemical fibers and is a polymerization product of terephthalic acid or diethyl terephthalate and ethylene glycol. The flame retardant mechanism mainly involves the addition of flame retardants, which are a type of material additive commonly used in polyester plastics, textiles, etc. Adding them to polyester achieves the goal of flame retardancy by increasing the material’s ignition point or hindering its combustion, thereby improving the fire safety of the material. There are many types of flame retardants, including halogenated flame retardants, organophosphorus and phosphorus halide flame retardants, intumescent flame retardants, and inorganic flame retardants. Currently, brominated flame retardants are commonly used in halogenated flame retardants.

Raw materials for the production of flame-retardant non-woven fabrics

Flame retardant non-woven fabric generally uses pure polyester as the production raw material, which is mixed with some harmless compounds, such as aluminum phosphate, to improve its flame retardant performance.
However, ordinary non-woven fabrics usually use synthetic fibers such as polyester and polypropylene as raw materials, without special flame retardant substances added, so their flame retardant performance is weak.

The flame retardant performance of flame-retardant non-woven fabrics

Flame retardant non-woven fabric has good flame retardant performance, with characteristics such as high temperature resistance, anti-static, and fire resistance. In the event of a fire, the burning area can be quickly dissipated, greatly reducing fire losses.

The use of flame-retardant non-woven fabrics

Flame retardant non-woven fabrics are widely used in fields such as construction, aviation, automotive, railway, etc., such as aircraft and automotive interiors, building insulation materials, etc.
However, ordinary non-woven fabrics have a relatively single purpose and are mainly used in medical, health, clothing, shoe materials, home and other fields.

How to choose flame-retardant non-woven fabric?

When choosing flame-retardant non-woven fabrics, it is necessary to consider their specific usage scenarios and performance requirements. While ensuring safety, products with different thicknesses, weights, and purchase quantities can be selected to meet different needs.

Flame retardant non-woven fabrics can be divided into three categories based on material: polyester flame retardant non-woven fabric, polypropylene flame retardant non-woven fabric, and adhesive flame retardant non-woven fabric. This is mainly divided according to their main components. At present, our company can provide polyester flame-retardant non-woven fabric and polypropylene flame-retardant non-woven fabric.

The difference between ordinary non-woven fabric and flame-retardant non-woven fabric

Ordinary non-woven fabric, due to its lack of any special properties, is suitable for some low demand occasions, such as daily necessities, home decoration, etc. Flame retardant non-woven fabric is achieved by adding certain chemicals or using special manufacturing processes to ordinary non-woven fabric to achieve a certain level of flame retardant performance. Flame retardant non-woven fabric is suitable for situations with high safety requirements, such as construction, medicine, automotive and other fields.
