Textiles are important basic materials related to the national economy and people's livelihood. Their applications cover daily life, industry, agriculture, medical defense, aerospace, transportation, military and many other fields. However, with the expansion of application fields, fiber products have also become various types. One of the main hidden dangers of indoor and outdoor fires.


In recent years, the ignition or combustion of textiles has brought huge losses to people's lives and property safety. It has become a serious social problem, and a lot of research work has been done on flame retardant fibers and their textiles at home and abroad. Today, let's take a brief look at the research, development and application of flame retardant fibers and their products.


The flame retardant staple fiber mainly comprises an essential flame retardant short fiber and a modified flame retardant short fiber.


Intrinsic flame retardant staple fibers mainly include inorganic fibers and organic high-performance fibers, among which inorganic fibers include basalt fiber, glass fiber, quartz fiber, boron fiber, ceramic fiber, etc.; organic high-performance fibers include aramid, polyimide fiber, and poly Phenylene sulfide fiber, polysulfonamide fiber and polytetrafluoroethylene fiber.


Modified flame retardant staple fiber mainly refers to fibers with good flame retardant properties obtained by physical or chemical modification, such as flame retardant polyester, nylon, vinylon and cellulose fibers, etc. The main preparation methods include copolymerized section spinning Method, blend spinning method, composite spinning method and coating method.


Due to its unique properties, flame retardant staple fiber has broad application prospects in civil, military and industrial applications. It can be used not only for flame retardant textiles for automobiles, trains and airplanes, but also for aerospace flame retardant composites. Materials, decorative textiles in public places such as hotels, restaurants, hospitals, military, forest fire protection clothing and home textile products.
