FirePhob is a family of versatile, non-halogenated flame retardant (FR) materials. FirePhob forms a flame retarding glassy layer when exposed to fire and thus can protect from direct flame. FirePhob can be permanently applied to fabrics/textiles (including cotton, polyester, spandex, nylon-cotton and fabrics of any weave) as a filler or coating. The mechanical properties of the treated textiles remain unaffected. FirePhob does not leach out and endures over time after repeated washing. These materials can also be applied to plastics and metals for durable protection. Unlike other halogenated FR materials, FirePhob is non-toxic and safe. The phosphorous-based compounds eliminate toxic and corrosive fumes. FirePhob is applied using environmentally friendly solutions in non-toxic solvents.
