Flame retardant material means that the fabric is resistant to catching fire. Yes, you can dye flame retardant cotton fabric.

Baskets for the home made of certain materials will be flame retardant. These include those covered with flame retardant fabrics and those made of metals such as aluminium or iron. It is possible to treat baskets at home with flame retardant sprays.

Flame retardant means the material will burn at a slow rate. However, flame resistant is defined as resisting flames and the power to withstand any type of flame.

There are the fiber flame retardant and the after finished flame retardant. Because the cost difference, the after finished flame retardant treatment is widely used in China.

The two way to make the fabric flame retardant,

1. Add the fire retardant chemicals to the fiber by polymerization, blended, alloying, composite spinning, melt grafting to make the fiber flame retardant.

2. The coated flame retardant or padded the flame retardant chemicals to the fabric. This two way have two different flame retardancy. The best way is to make the modified treatment to the fabric by nano technology, which have low cost and permanent flame retardancy. And the fabric is also soft, which have get the world class standard.

In general, the fiber flame retardant can take full advantage of the FR chemicals than the after finished FR fabric. It is more softer and have permanent flame retardant effects. But in the practive use, we usually use more than one chemicals or two kind of method at the same time to get the flame retardant effects.
