1. Applicable places of flame retardant fabric materials

 

Heat resistant insulation materials are often used in some special places. Many users do not have a special understanding of the use of this product. Fire resistant fabric materials can be used for various interior decoration, bedding and cabin decorative fabrics and so on. With the development of social economy, the demand for it is also increasing. In the 1960s, Japan, Europe and the United States and other developed countries put forward requirements for flame retardant finishing of textiles, and formulated flame retardant standards for various types of textiles to limit non flame retardant textiles from the types and places of use of textiles. For example, the United States has enacted laws, state laws and urban regulations and some other standards and regulations formulated by some places on flammability for curtains, bed sheets, pajamas, children's clothes, automotive fabrics, camping tents, toys and other textiles.

 

In addition, fire resistant fabric materials can also be used in some other places, such as aircraft, ships, automobiles and other places. If you want to know more about fire resistant fabric materials, you can contact us at any time.

 

2. Why are fire resistant fabric materials flame-retardant and fireproof?

Fire resistant fabric material is a kind of textile, which is more fire-resistant than ordinary fabrics. The reason why flame-retardant and silicone coated fiberglass fabrics can prevent fire is mainly because some fibers are specially used for fire resistance through their fibers or chemical finishing.

 

However, it should be noted that the fire prevention and flame retardancy of flame retardant sleeves mean "fire prevention". Even though the combustion rate of these fabrics will be slower than that of other fabrics, it can burn. Moreover, if this flame-retardant fabric is exposed for a period of time, such as fire and high temperature, it may also be damaged. These fabrics are mainly to reduce the spread of fire.

 

Fire resistant fabric materials can use natural fibers to create fire-resistant fabric fabrics. A chemical substance can be used to reduce its flammability. The chemical substance that will react with the tar and gas naturally produced by the fabric is locally applied to reduce the flammability of the fabric. Of course, the chemical reaction between these tar and gas will lead to fabric coke rather than combustion.

 

Therefore, the flame-retardant fabric is not that it cannot burn. It is that after the flame-retardant process, the fabric carbonizes in case of fire and extinguishes itself after leaving the fire, so as to effectively prevent the spread of flame. Can fire resistant fabric materials be washed? Of course, and the flame retardancy will not decrease with the increase of washing times.


Heat insulation sleeve is a protective sleeve used to protect various pipeline equipment. According to different working conditions and environments, sleeves with different high-temperature resistance can be selected. Good heat insulator materials need to have the following characteristics: high temperature resistance, heat insulation, flame retardancy, electrical insulation, chemical stability, weather resistance, cold resistance, water resistance, oil resistance, ozone resistance, voltage resistance, arc resistance, corona resistance, etc.

 

Material used for thermal insulation

 

The heat sleeve is woven into a tube with high-fluffy alkali-free glass fiber mortar, and the outer layer is coated with high-quality silicone rubber, which can effectively block the splashing of molten iron, molten copper, molten aluminum, etc., and is not subject to the damage caused by high temperature and flame. The product is bright in color and has an excellent elongation coefficient. These properties make it suitable for protecting hoses, cables and pipes in harsh environments. At present, a kind of red heat insulation sleeve commonly used in the market is made of silicone rubber and alkali-free glass fiber. Of course, in addition to sleeve of this material, Xinmao also has a variety of different materials, and the sleeve made of these materials can be applied to ensure the normal operation of various pipeline equipment under different working conditions.

 

Types of heat insulation sleeves

 

The heat insulation sleeves can be classified according to actual applications and can be used in different working conditions.

 

Straight heat insulation sleeves

 

For straight heat insulation sleeves, users do not need to stop equipment or remove hoses and cables during installation. Another advantage is that it can be installed on site in the factory to ensure the close fit and structural integrity. It is generally suitable for protecting short or straight pipelines, cables, automobile wiring harnesses, and generator sets.

 

Hasp heat insulation sleeve

 

The advantage of the hasp heat insulation sleeve is that it is easy to disassemble and assemble. There is no need to stop the equipment and disassemble the cable during installation. The interior is stitched with fire-resistant and flame-retardant fasteners. You only need to glue the sleeve in the middle to play the role of seal and insulation, which does not affect equipment production and saves installation time. It is commonly used in large-scale smelting equipment, and also used in metal high-temperature hoses.

 

Application of heat insulation sleeve

 

It is widely applied in high-temperature areas in industries such as steel, smelting, shipbuilding and chemical engineering, and cables in heating area, fluid pipelines, cables of the rolling mill, oil pipes, sawing edge cables, generator sets, electrical voltage equipment, large buildings, hydraulic systems, automotive wiring harnesses and exhaust pipe and so on.
