Fire insulation clothing is a kind of clothing that provides thermal protection for firefighters and other workers in high temperature places. It is made of flame-retardant fiber fabric and vacuum aluminized film composite material. It does not contain asbestos. It has special advantages such as light weight, high strength, flame retardant, high temperature resistance, radiation resistance, water resistance, abrasion resistance, folding resistance, and harmless to the human body. It can effectively ensure that firefighters and operators in high temperature places are close to the heat source and will not be burned by extreme heat, flame and steam. It is suitable for firefighters on land and ships to extinguish fire, and can also be used as labor protection equipment for workers in various high-temperature workplaces such as factories, mines, and scientific research laboratories.

When the temperature rises to 600 degrees in a few minutes, a fire will occur. Even in a room with a direct fire, the temperature is around 300 degrees, and the high temperature that can melt plastic is enough to kill people. Fire insulation clothing is mainly used for high temperature operations, at high temperatures must maintain their physical properties do not shrink, do not melt, not brittle carbonization.
Flame retardancy means that the fabric is difficult to burn or non-flammable when it encounters special high temperature or flame. When the fabric is on fire, it can inhibit the spread of combustion, and once the fire source is evacuated, it can immediately extinguish the fire by itself. In a fire, severe burns often occur where people's clothes are on fire, so the flame retardant performance of fire insulation clothing is very important. In the process of using fire insulation clothing, it is usually the side of the fabric that meets the flame. Firefighters in the process of entering and leaving the fire, to a large extent, the outside of the fire suit is in direct contact with the flame, while the inside is rarely in contact with the flame. This requires the thermal protective fabric to be able to resist the flame from side to side, so the flame penetration properties of the fabric need to be considered.
Fire insulation clothing manufacturers found that in actual use, most users do not directly touch the flame, but transfer the external heat to the human body in the form of heat convection, heat radiation and heat conduction, causing harm to the human body. Fire insulation clothing must have good performance of slowing down and preventing heat transfer, so as to avoid the harm of heat source to human body, and provide good safety protection for users of heat protection clothing working in high temperature environment. The heat insulation of fire insulation clothing is not only related to the thermal conductivity of the fiber material of the heat insulation clothing, but also related to the design and fabric of the clothing. The material has a great relationship with the structure of the lining.
In addition to keeping warm, fire insulation clothing must also have good wearing comfort, such as tensile strength, tear strength and abrasion resistance. The dyeing is firm and washable, and it must have a certain heat and moisture transfer capacity, which is conducive to the body's heat dissipation and sweat evaporation, and the physiological load is low. In addition, the fire insulation clothing should be light in weight, easy to wear, loose in structure, not restricted by running, climbing, and jumping, and not easy to cause hooking. Strengthen measures for vulnerable parts to meet the requirements of coordination and comfort and improve work efficiency.
