Given their importance to consumer safety, fire-resistant textiles are one of the fastest-growing areas in industrial textiles. The Handbook of Fire Resistant Textiles is a comprehensive review of the considerable recent advances in the field of fire resistant textiles. It brings together scientific and technical expertise to produce an important source of current knowledge on fire resistant textiles and their use in hostile environments. Part One offers an overview of fire resistant textiles. Chapters discuss burning and combustion mechanisms of fibers, chemical modification of natural and synthetic fibers to improve flame retardancy, multi-component flame resistant coating techniques for textiles, care and maintenance of fire resistant textiles, along with the safety, health and environmental aspects of flame retardants. Part Two covers different types of fire resistant fibers and fabrics, including flame retardant cotton, wool, ceramic fibers and blends, composites and nonwovens. Part Three reviews standards, regulations, and characterization of fire resistant textiles. Part Four includes case studies of major applications of fire-resistant textiles.
