Abstract
To develop durable flame, water and oil repellent fabrics, a study was undertaken using fluorochemicals as water and oil repellent agents on inherently flame-retardant fibers. The treated samples were leached for 30 and 60 min to evaluate durability of the chemical treatment. The fluorochemical treatments produced durable fabrics that were simultaneously flame retardant and water and oil repellent. The effect of fluorochemicals on the thermal chemistry of inherently flame-retardant fibers was studied using thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The studies showed that the fluorochemical treatment does not affect the thermal chemistry of the flame-retardant fibers.
