The Flame Retardancy Of Export Textiles Was Bad.

< p > reporter learned yesterday from the Quanzhou Shishi Office of the entry exit inspection and Quarantine Bureau: according to statistics, in 2012, Europe and the United States recalled 285 items of China's textile and clothing products, and the total number of events was 65 batches due to < a href= "http://cailiao.sjfzxm.com/Matertial/show/default.aspx" > < < /a > >, accounting for 22.8%.

All of the products after being notified were returned or destroyed.

< p > in recent years, the United States, Holland, Sweden and the United Kingdom have stipulated the combustion performance of clothing, especially children's pajamas.

The United States stipulated the general combustion characteristics of textiles, moderate combustion characteristics, rapid and severe combustion 3 levels; Holland pajamas fire protection regulations, children pajamas test line should not melt in 17 seconds; adult pajamas test line can not melt in 10 seconds, otherwise it is not allowed to sell.

According to the analysis, there are two main reasons leading to the unqualified flame retardancy of textile and clothing: first, some garment processing enterprises are not strong in risk awareness, use too light textile raw materials, and do not detect the flame retardancy of the final products in time; two, some enterprises have defects in clothing design, and some of their accessories are decorated with feather, which makes them extremely inflammable.

< p > > a href= "http://www.91se91.com/news/" > Shishi < /a > is China's important textile and garment export base, and the European Union and the United States are the main export markets of our textile and clothing.

In 2012, the Office examined and supervised 22256 batches of export garments and 1 billion 131 million US dollars.

The total volume of exports to the European Union and the United States is over 10000 batches and US $560 million.

To this end, Quanzhou entry and exit inspection and Quarantine Bureau Shishi office reminds enterprises to pay attention to the flame retardant properties of textile and clothing exported to Europe and the United States, to prevent the problem of flame retardant properties of textile and clothing from being notified, and to strictly comply with the standards and regulations of foreign textile and clothing, and to familiarise themselves with the relevant standard requirements of flame retardant properties of European and American textiles and garments, to organize production in strict accordance with the requirements of exporting countries; to control the procurement of raw materials, and to acquire the test report of flame retardant properties of raw materials from raw materials suppliers, so as to ensure the qualified pass of raw materials, and to strengthen the quality inspection, to detect the flame retardant properties of textile and garment samples first, and strictly control the product development process, so as to avoid the occurrence of quality runaway due to design errors.

< /p > < p > judging the flame retardancy of fabrics is usually based on two criteria: first, judging from the burning rate of < a href= "http://www.91se91.com > > fabric > /a >.

That is, the flame retardant fabric is exposed to the flame in accordance with the prescribed method for a certain period of time, then the flame is removed to measure the duration of flame burning and flameless combustion, and the degree of damage to the fabric.

The shorter the time of flame burning and the time of flameless combustion, the lower the degree of damage is, the better the flame retardancy of the fabric; conversely, it indicates that the flame retardant property of the fabric is not good.

< /p > < p >.

< /p > < p > the other is to judge the limit oxygen index of the sample.

The limiting oxygen index (LOI) is the expression of the amount of oxygen required for the sample combustion, so the flame retardancy of the fabric can be judged by measuring the oxygen index.

The higher the oxygen index, the higher the oxygen concentration required to maintain the combustion, which means the more difficult it is to burn.

The index can be expressed by the minimum volume percentage of oxygen required for candle burning in a mixture of nitrogen and oxygen.

Theoretically speaking, the oxygen index of textile materials as long as more than 21% (the volume of oxygen in natural air), it has self extinguishing in the air.

According to the size of oxygen index, textile is usually divided into four grades: flammable (LOI<20%), combustible (LOI=20% to 26%), non inflammable (LOI=26% ~ 34%) and non combustible (LOI>35%).
