Main classifications of fireproof cloth
There are many types of fireproof cloth, and different fireproof materials are suitable for different fields. The first category is post-finished flame-retardant fabrics, such as pure cotton, polyester-cotton, etc.; post-finishing of flame-retardant fabrics mainly involves surface treatment of fabrics during the post-finishing process of textiles, so that the fabrics have flame-retardant properties and the fabrics are flame-retardant. The finishing process is simple, with low investment and quick results, and is suitable for the development of new products. The second category is inherently flame-retardant fabrics, such as aramid, acrylic cotton, etc.
What material is fire retardant cloth?
Fire-retardant cloth is a kind of fabric with fire-retardant properties. The reason why fire-retardant cloth has fire-retardant properties is determined by the material from which the fire-retardant cloth is made. So, what are the materials for making fireproof cloth?
1. Silicone, rubber and fiberglass
Silicone rubber-coated fiberglass cloth is the most common fire-resistant cloth. Its main materials are silicone, rubber and fiberglass. Glass fiber is an inorganic non-metallic material. Its greatest characteristics are high temperature resistance and corrosion resistance. Silicone rubber is also a material with excellent high temperature resistance. Generally, silicone rubber-coated fiberglass cloth is made by calendering or impregnating silicone rubber.
2. Basalt
Basalt is the raw material for refining basalt fiber, and basalt fiber is the main and most important material for making basalt fiber fireproof cloth. The above two materials are the main materials for making the most common fire-proof cloth. In addition, materials such as acrylic fiber, flame retardant and silica are also common materials for making fire-proof cloth.
