Each type is governed by additional standards that further delineate their performance characteristics.

In the past, in order to render a fabric, especially cotton, fireproof, <strong>chromium<\/strong> or <strong>titanium<\/strong> compounds were applied to it. These substances served as <strong>Flame Retardants<\/strong> (FR), preventing the formation of <strong>tarry materials<\/strong> and instead promoting the creation of <strong>carbonaceous<\/strong> ones that burn less readily, thus preventing the spread of combustion.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Over time, through thorough analysis, it became apparent that Chromium had toxic and carcinogenic properties, while Titanium and Zirconium were not very resistant to washing. Consequently, the use of these elements was quickly discontinued, and they were replaced with organobromine compounds.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the 1960s, flame-retardant <strong>synthetic textile fibres were<\/strong> found to possess flame-resistant characteristics, replacing the previously used materials. The heat-resistant properties of these fibres result from the chemical structures of the polymers composing them.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<h3>Flame Retardant<\/h3>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Flame Retardants have the purpose of initiating chemical processes that disrupt the fabric&#8217;s combustion process, achieving the following:<\/span><\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>The release of water<\/strong> or <strong>gas to dilute<\/strong> the gases that fuel combustion.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>The absorption of thermal energy<\/strong> to cool the burning material.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The production of a <strong>resilient, non-flammable layer<\/strong> on the material&#8217;s surface.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Before applying flame protection to fabric, it must be tested on a <strong>small area<\/strong> to ensure compatibility and prevent harm. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The fabric being tested should be thoroughly cleaned and dry before any flame-retardant treatment is applied. However, a <strong>drawback<\/strong> of flame retardants is that they lose their <strong>flame-retardant properties<\/strong> through washing and <strong>produce toxic fumes<\/strong> when exposed to flames.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<h3><strong>Limit Oxygen Index<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The flame-retardant qualities of Flame Retardants are denoted by a numerical value, accompanied by the abbreviation <strong>L.O.I. (Limit Oxygen Index)<\/strong>: the minimum concentration of oxygen, expressed as a percentage, needed to support polymer combustion. This is the primary parameter for distinguishing and assessing fibre flammability.<\/span><\/p>\r\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Considering that under normal conditions, the oxygen concentration in the air is 21%, according to the Limiting Oxygen Index (L.O.I.), fibres can be categorised into three groups:<\/span><\/p>\r\n<ul>\r\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <strong>first group<\/strong> encompasses both natural and synthetic fibres that are highly flammable and exhibit an L.O.I. of approximately 18 (e.g., cotton, acrylic, polypropylene, and cellulosic fibres). Some synthetic fibres have a slightly higher <strong>L.O.I. of around 22<\/strong> (e.g., polyamide and polyester), offering acceptable performance in <strong>less critical applications<\/strong> such as flooring and wall coverings.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The <strong>second group<\/strong> comprises synthetic fibres with <strong>L.O.I. values ranging from 28 to 31<\/strong>, displaying flame-retardant properties. These fibres have the advantage of imparting permanent flame-retardant characteristics to fabrics, functioning as flame inhibitors. The majority of flame-retardant textiles on the market are produced using these modified fibres because, along with adequate fire reaction properties, they combine cost-effectiveness, ease of processing, and textile aesthetics suitable for most market demands.<\/span><\/li>\r\n<li><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>The third group<\/strong> consists of fibres referred to as &#8220;<strong>heat resistant<\/strong>,&#8221; with <strong>L.O.I. values exceeding 30 to 50<\/strong>, including <strong>carbon fibres<\/strong>, <strong>meta<\/strong> and p<strong>ara-aramid fibres<\/strong>, and other fibres composed of <strong>condensed aromatic<\/strong> or <strong>cyclic core polymers<\/strong>. Textile products made from these fibres tend to carbonise during combustion and do not emit flammable gases. <\/span>These materials serve as the basis for high-cost technical products that necessitate special precautions during production and processing. Consequently, their use, which is experiencing significant growth, is reserved for specific industries willing to invest in superior performance.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n<h3 class=\"has-text-align-center\">Summary Table of Flame-Retardant Materials<\/h3>\r\n<h4 class=\"has-text-align-center\">L.O.I.

The test involves measuring <strong>the time<\/strong> and the <strong>amount of thermal energy<\/strong> per unit area required for the temperature on the inner surface of the fabric to reach a level that could cause a second-degree burn. Dividing the TPP value (cal\/cm\u00b2) by the base weight of the fabric (in g\/m 2) yields the FFF factor (<strong>Fabric Failure Factor<\/strong>), which indicates the fabric&#8217;s thermal insulation capacity.
