  • Patent number: 7700190
    Abstract: This invention relates to a flame-resistant spun staple yarns and fabrics and garments comprising these yarns and methods of making the same. The yarns have 25 to 90 parts by weight of a polymeric staple fiber containing a structure derived from a monomer selected from the group consisting of 4,4?diaminodiphenyl sulfone, 3,3?diaminodiphenyl sulfone, and mixtures thereof; and 10 to 75 parts by weight of a textile staple fiber having limiting oxygen index of 21 or greater, based on 100 parts by weight of the polymeric fiber and the textile fiber in the yarn.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: August 22, 2007
    Date of Patent: April 20, 2010
    Assignee: E.I. du Pont de Nemours and Company
    Inventors: Reiyao Zhu, Roger Parry, Debbie Guckert, Vlodek Gabara, Yves Bader
  • Patent number: 7537831
    Abstract: The invention concerns a flame-resistant spun staple yarns and fabrics and garments comprising these yarns and methods of making the same. The yarns have 25 to 80 parts by weight of a polymeric staple fiber containing a polymer or copolymer derived from a monomer selected from the group consisting of 4,4 ?diaminodiphenyl sulfone, 3,3?diaminodiphenyl sulfone, and mixtures thereof; and 20 to 75 parts by weight of a modacrylic fiber, based on 100 parts by weight of the polymeric fiber and the modacrylic fiber in the yarn.

  • Publication number: 20050025962
    Abstract: An intimate blend of staple fibers has from 10 to 75 parts by weight of at least one aramid staple fiber, from 15 to 80 parts by weight of at least one flame retardant cellulosic staple fiber, and from 5 to 30 parts by weight of at least one polyamide staple fiber. The intimate blend of staple fibers provides yarns and fabrics that are flame retardant, also referred to as fire resistant, and can be used to make flame retardant articles, such as clothing. The flame retardant fabrics may have a basis weight from 4 to 15 ounces per square yard.
