Modacrylic/Cotton Blended Yarn 30s - Flame Retardant Core Spun Thread for Firefighter Suits/PPE Sewing

Advantages of Modacrylic --Protex-c

1. Inherently Flame Retardant
Protex is an inherently flame retardantproductin which the fiber resin itselfcontains the flame retardant ingredient. When the flame source is removed, Protexhas a self extinguishing characteristic inwhich combustion stops when the ignitionsource is removed immediately. Unlike FRafter treatments, there is no deterioration inflame retardancy after either repeatedwashing or normal use over time.

2. No Melt /No Drip
Protex creates excellent charring characteristicswithout melting or dripping when exposed toflame and high temperature. The char formingbarrierwill work to prevent the flame spreadand stop the burning when the flame source isremoved. As there is no melting or dripping, itensures that no potentially dangerous moltendroplets are produced which could stick to theskin and cause severe burns such as may occurwith polyester or other thermoplastic fibers.

3. Soft, Drappeable Hand Blendable with a Range of Fibers
Protex is light, warm, softand flexibe due toitsunique fiber cross-section. Protex has a uniquecrosS-sectionalshapethat imparts a soft hand. It is good for interior uses that require a naturalappearance andcomfortable feel. The wearingexperience is also most favorable, as it has avery nice feel when blended with natural fibers, such as cotton.
The superior properties of Protexfiber allowsfor blends with flammable fibers, such as cotton, rayon, and polyester in various combinations toachieve a high level of FR performance.

4. Superior Dyeability
Protex can can be dyed with cationic dyestuffs, resultingin a beautiful and long lasting colorshade. Similar processing conditions,as withregular acrylic fiber, can be applied to eachphaseof spinning, dyeing, forming.

5. Chemical Resistant
Protex exhibits superior chemical resistanceagainst acid, alkaline, organic and inorganicchemicals and is used commony in industrialmaterials.
