Abstract


Clothing flammability must be avoided as burn injuries are often severe, disfiguring, and can cause death. We studied the properties of protective clothing for workers who are subjected to heat and fire risks in their work places to achieve both comfort and safety.

Chefs in hotel kitchens, workers in ironmasters and welders in their workshops are examples for those people exposed to several levels of heat and fire. Specific high performance fibers (Nomex, P84 and Glass Fiber) were selected to produce suitable woven and laminated or composite fabric – nonwoven-woven-nonwoven (NWN) – reinforcement fabrics are produced with specific industrial methods, and then special models were produced.
