Do you know the three protective functions of flame retardant clothing?

When talking about protective clothing, you may first think of flame resistant clothing. As one of the most widely used types of personal protective clothing, the safety protection function of flame resistant clothing is to protect workers from fire or heat.

Flame resistant clothing’s national standard GB8965.1-2009 "Safety Protective Clothing - Flame Resistant Safety Protection - Part 1 - Flame Resistant Clothing" including heat insulation (thermal safety protection factor), flame resistant (smoldering, continuous combustion, carbon length) and no molten droplet (no molten, no molten droplet) three safety protection properties.

Heat insulation safety protection performance

It can prevent the introduction of heat at the open flame or heat source, and separate the influence of the open flame and heat source on the inside of the garment.

Mainly used to prevent or relieve second-degree burn (cauma) of the skin caused by external heat.

Flame resistant safety protection performance

It can greatly slow down the burning speed of the fabric, and it can quickly extinguish itself after leaving the fire source.

It is mainly to bring precious golden time for the escape of industrial workers in the phenomenon of fire accidents.

No molten droplet safety protection performance

The burning part of the fabric can be quickly carbonized after burning without melting, dripping or piercing.

Mainly through the non-droplet and carbonization properties to prevent secondary damage.

Flame resistant clothing sets up a line of defense for safety and health, prevents or reduces damage, and is widely used in oil fields, petrochemicals, gas stations, chemicals, fire protection and other occasions where clothing has various safety protection requirements
