Flame Retardant and Fire-Resistant Finishes

Flame retardant finishes reduce flammability via gas-phase inhibition, char formation, or endothermic decomposition using organophosphorus compounds, metal hydroxides, or inherently FR fibers like aramid and modacrylic. Applications include protective clothing, children's sleepwear, home furnishings, and transportation meeting stringent safety regulations with LOI >26% and compliance to standards like 16 CFR 1615/1616, NFPA 701, and EN 45545.
