Personal Protection - Common Special Protective Clothing Fabric Features

The protective clothing on the market is intricate and has many functions. Many professionals have no correct choice and identification. This article will provide you with a brief introduction to the characteristics of common protective clothing fabrics, and provide a reference for people in special positions to choose suitable protective clothing.

First, easy to decontamination fabric
The main feature of this type of fabric is its dual function of preventing staining and easy decontamination. Once stained, it is also easy to clean. Therefore, the use of easily decontaminated fabrics is suitable for the production of uniforms that are frequently exposed to the working environment of animal and vegetable oils and mineral oils.

Second, oil-repellent and water-repellent fabrics The uniforms made of this fabric are suitable for workers who are often exposed to oil and water mediums. They have the advantages of oil-impregnated, water-insoluble, breathable, moisture-permeable, etc. They are widely used in petroleum. Industry, machinery manufacturing, maintenance, sanitation systems, food processing and other industries.
Third, fire retardant fabric Fire retardant fabrics are mainly cotton flame retardant fabrics, CVC flame-retardant fabrics, anti-static flame-retardant fabrics and other kinds. The cotton flame-retardant fabric has good washing performance, non-toxic and odor-free, safe and reliable to the human body, breathable and moisture permeable, soft to the touch and comfortable. The famous flame-retardant fabric is a special flame-retardant cloth that uses British “Praban” flame-retardant finishing technology, which not only effectively prevents the spread of flame, but also protects the original performance of the fabric. The protective clothing made of the fabric has good detergency, no odor, is safe to wear, comfortable and reliable, and can be widely used in shipbuilding, machinery, metallurgy, forestry, firefighting, electrical welding and other industries to produce protective clothing.

Fourth, anti-static fabrics Anti-static clothing is flammable and explosive places must wear protective clothing. Anti-static fabrics are made of anti-static fiber blends. Its conductive performance can reach the requirements of Japan's "Electrostatic Safety Guide". The fabric has strong durability and can be widely used by workers in the flammable and explosive gas, chemical, dust, petroleum, pharmaceutical, and electronics industries.

5. UV protection fabrics UV protection fabrics mainly contain high-efficiency UV absorbing materials. The products are non-toxic, non-explosive, safe to the human body, have no irritation or allergic reaction to the skin, and do not affect the color, strength, moisture absorption and breathability of fabrics. The fabrics include cotton, hemp, silk, wool, polycotton, and nylon fabrics. The fabrics have good absorption, transformation, reflection, and scattering effects on the 180-400 nm wavelength ultraviolet ray (especially UV-A and UV-B).

6. Anti-acid and alkali-resistant fabrics The protective clothing produced by this kind of fabric is suitable for workers who are often exposed to acid and alkali fluids, and has good acid resistance, high acid resistance, long time for acid permeation resistance, and good acid-proof performance such as low acid pick-up rate. The personnel have a very good protection function and are widely used in the chemical industry to produce protective clothing.
