Abstract
The effect of ammonium sulfate (NH4)2SO4 on the flammability of 100% cotton woven fabric (plain 144 g m−2, the number of yarns 21 per 10 mm) has been of interest in this study. The laundered bone-dried, massed fabrics were impregnated with suitable concentration of aqueous ammonium sulfate solutions by means of squeeze rolls, drying and conditioning. Afterwards the specimen’s resistance to burning has been determined. The optimum add-on value of ammonium sulfate to impart flame-retardancy to cotton fabric was in a range about 10.55–13.62 g anhydrous salt per 100 g fabric.
