Starlight® FR
Produced from the polymer Zeroxy™, which improves the product's polyester flame retardant performances, fulfils the requirements of specific classes of fabrics.
Starlight® FR polyester flame retardant characteristics:
Starlight® FR yarn is produced from the modified polymer Zeroxy™, which improves the product's flame retardant performance and fulfils the requirements of specific classes of fabrics. Polyester flame retardant characteristics are incorporated into the Zeroxy™ polymer and become an intrinsic property of the polymer itself.
The fire safety or flammability of a material is measured by the Limit Oxygen Index (LOI), that is, the lowest concentration of oxygen, expressed as a percentage, that will support sustained combustion of the material in a given environment. The concentration of oxygen in the atmosphere is about 21%. Fibres with LOI values greater than 21% (Critical Oxygen Index or COI) will have less tendency to burn in the atmosphere.
As Starlight® FR Zeroxy™ polyester is among the fibres with the highest LOI, it is suitable for all those applications that required flame retardant properties.
Starlight® FR flame retardant characteristics can also be combined with Starlight® feel bacteriostatic functionality and/or Starlight UV Guard UV stabilization.
