Fire retardation in nylon 6-layered silicate nanocomposites: Films, fibers and fabrics
Nanocomposites with 8 wt% MMT (montmorrilonite) show better spinnability and the fibres have satisfactory physical properties to knit into fabric. Condensed phase flame retardant mechanism of MMT seems to be effective but to a lesser extent as the sample geometry is changed from film to fibre and fabric. At a concentration of 8 wt% MMT, the flame retardant effect depends on fabric geometry as well as test conditions. Flame spread is too rapid for the MMT platelets to form a continuous char in horizontal flame spread tests and hence the nanocomposite fabrics do not show significant difference in flame spread behaviour compared to nylon 6 fabrics. However under radiant heat conditions, the fibres fuse and enable formation of a continuous surface char at very early stages of burning resulting in significant flame retardance. Fabric tightness factor plays a crucial role in supporting the char formation process and with higher tightness factor enhanced flame retardancy could be achieved.
