Abstract: The present invention discloses novel halogenated flame retardant formulations that effectively flame retard textiles at low binder and/or the flame retardant synergist contents, novel modes of application thereof on textiles, and flame-retarded textile fibers and fabrics which are treated by these formulations.

Abstract: The invention relates generally to fabrics and, more particularly, to a fire retardant fabric for covering articles to provide fire retardancy or resistance to open flame ignition sources and the use of said fabrics in open flame resistant mattresses, mattress foundations, upholstered furniture article and other articles filled with resilient cushioning materials that are rendered resistant to open flame and smoldering ignition sources by a consumer/end-user.

Abstract: Textile products having a flame retarded coating wherein the flame retarded coating contains a flame-retarding agent.

Abstract: The present invention is a luminous fabric and garment that have excellent luminescent properties under conditions of poor lighting, that lose their luminescent properties only slightly due to wear degradation and the like during prolonged use, that have the same color tone and design as regular fabrics and garments during day use, and that possess excellent aesthetic qualities and are free from design limitations.

Abstract: The cigar and cigarette burn resistant gaming cloth table includes a layer of fire retardant treated knit fabric laminated to a thin sheet of aluminum and wherein the other side of the aluminum sheet is laminated to a layer of non-woven synthetic fabric. Preferably, the top layer knit fabric is laminated to the aluminum via a latex adhesive. The lower non-woven fabric is laminated to the aluminum sheet via latex adhesive. Preferably, the knit layer, prior to being laminated to the thin sheet of aluminum, is treated with a fire retardant and an oil and water repellant chemical composition. Most preferably, the fire retardant and oil and water repellant chemical composition is a phosphorus fluorocarbon. The method includes treating the knit polyester fabric with fire retardant chemical, laminating a thin sheet of aluminum between the knit fabric layer and a layer of non-woven synthetic fabric. Preferably, the lamination is accomplished with a latex adhesive.

Abstract: The cigar and cigarette burn resistant gaming cloth table includes a layer of fire retardant treated knit fabric laminated to a thin sheet of aluminum and wherein the other side of the aluminum sheet is laminated to a layer of synthetic fabric (preferably, a non-woven fabric). Preferably, the top layer knit fabric is laminated to the aluminum via a latex adhesive. The lower non-woven fabric is (a) laminated to the aluminum sheet via latex adhesive, (b) needle punch mounted to the aluminum, or (c) the aluminum is sprayed onto one or the other of the cloth layers. Preferably, the knit layer, prior to being laminated to the thin sheet of aluminum, is treated with a fire retardant and an oil, alcohol and water repellant and stain resistant chemical composition (preferably, a phosphorus fluorocarbon).

Abstract: A sufficiently flame-retardant fabric for ink-jet recording with an ink accepting layer on its one side at least, the ink acceptability (ink holding capability) of which is the same as that of its non-flame-retardant counterpart, allowing the fabric to render highly deep/brilliant shade and sharp color images. The flame-retardant fabric for ink-jet recording includes a flame retarded fiber substrate with an ink accepting layer on its one side at least, which is made up of a 3-12 &mgr;m-thick top sub-layer and a bottom sib-layer with a flame retarding agent contained only in the bottom sub-layer wherein the flame retarding agent has its active ingredient applied to the substrate in an aqueous dispersion, accounting for 4 to 30% of the entire ink accepting layer by weight.

Abstract: A flame retardant composition suitable for mesh sheets comprising 1.5 to 15 parts by weight of red phosphorus, 5 to 50 parts by weight of melamine sulfate, 40 to 150 parts by weight of a metal hydroxide, and a polyolefin-based resin aqueous dispersion having a resin solid content of 25 to 70% by weight. Each of said weights being based upon 100 parts by weight of the solid content of said dispersion. The present invention in many embodiments does not contain halogen, does not experience a rise in the viscosity of flameproofing agent during storage and provides an excellent effect that the flameproofing component does not elute even when a treated mesh sheet is washed and used repeatedly.

Abstract: A process for the flame-retardant treatment of a cellulosic fabric by impregnating a fabric with an aqueous solution of a tetrakis (hydroxyorgano) phosphonium (THP) and then at least partially drying it. The partially dried impregnated fabric is passed at a speed of 30 to 100 m/minute once through a chamber containing ammonia for a single cure. Both the moisture contained in the fabric and water produced as a by-product of curing are volatilized and condensed on an interior wall of the chamber and flow down the walls to a drain for removal of the condensed water from the apparatus. The process further includes measuring the rate of ammonia in the gas fed into the chamber, determining the ammonia content of the gas and measuring the temperature within the chamber, for maintaining the initial concentration of ammonia in the gas at 70% to 90% by volume and for maintaining the ratio of ammonia input to the THP composition in the range of at least 1.
