Abstract

This research is concerned with studying the effect of some construction factors, including weave structure, pile length and pile materials on the flame retardant property of chenille fabrics which used in upholstered furniture application, to improve its properties to meet the functional purpose it is produced for. Flammability property can be improved by preventing or delaying the ignition process using a technology that prevents thermal penetration or more thermally stable cushioning materials. Eight chenille fabrics were produced using three parameters mentioned before and treated with the same fire-retardant substance, (Flacavon H12/10). Our findings show that there is a direct relationship between fabric weight, thickness, char length and flame resistance of produced fabrics.
