Upholstered furniture having improved flame resistance

摘要: Flame resistance of upholstered furniture is significantly improved by interposing between the cover fabric and padding or applying to top side a layer neoprene foam capable forming when exposed burning cigarette under conditions standard flame spread test, thermally insulating char which does not smolder, maintains its structural integrity. The must be so formulated that it also evolving at combustion temperature sufficient amount water efficiently cool affected area. Normally, latex from prepared with promoter hydrated inorganic compound. Upholstered this invention passes test performs extremely well in test.
