Flame retardants are used in the fields of transportation, electronics and electrical equipment, furniture and building materials, and we can find its shadow everywhere. But do we know them? How are they flame retardant? In the following, Daoer Chemical tells you how carpet flame retardants play a role in fire prevention and fire extinguishing.

       The fire protection principle of flame retardants is not the same as that of general fire extinguishers. It has more complicated principles and processes. In the event of a fire, in order to prevent the combustion of carpet textile materials, the flame retardant after the flame will leave a layer of oxygen-resistant coating on the surface of the material to protect and prevent the spread of the flame. In the process of flame retardant, it can also absorb the heat generated in the combustion process, play a role in cooling and slowing down the combustion rate. In addition, it releases a flame-retardant non-flammable gas and substances, such as antimony trioxide.
