The author analyzes scientific bases of reducing the flammability of fiber-forming polymers, and methods for estimating the fire resistance of textiles and clothing packages. The paper describes the modification technology of cellulosic tissue by phosphorus flame retardant aflammit KWB. The optimum parameters of the modification process provide increase the oxygen index of cotton cloth to 38-40%. The effect of the flame-retardant modifications to the physical and mechanical properties is studied.

The paper presents the results of effective method of modifying cellulosic textile materials. The authors determine optimum parameters of the modification process impregnated with cotton padding aflammitom KWB, which provide a stable flame retardant effect with oxygen index of 27.9-28.2%. Modification using the electromagnetic field is not effective. Modification of the interpolymer complex containing flame retardants of different chemical nature PUCO-FLAM PCE, aflammit KWB and PUCO-FLAM NUV provides cotton fabric flame retardant effect with oxygen index of 27-37% vol., But it is not resistant to washing.

The paper studies fire-resistance of curtain fabrics based on cotton and polyester. Fabrics were treated with flame retardants of different chemical nature and concentration. The paper describes fire-resistance of curtain fabrics depending on their chemical nature and concentration of the impregnating compositions. The features of the influence of flame retardants and their concentration on the flame retardant fabric are described.
