FLAME RETARDENT  
 

KANECARON

As you would be well aware of the fact that Flame Retardance in Fabrics in to recent years is becoming mandatory and hence is being asked by, any of the fabric retailers all over the world. We at Rajvir have taken the initiative to provide the best Quality FR yarns, which can be very widely used in various products like Upholstery, Drapery, Protective Clothing, Work Wear, and Bed Sheeting etc. Following is the brief introduction about the type of yarns that we would be able to supply:

The FR Fibers, which are marketed under the brand name "KANECARON" are produced by Kaneka Corporation of Japan, the world's leading manufacturer of Modacrylic fiber (Modified Acrylic). Kanecaron is the brand name of a range of inherently flame - retardant modacrylic fibers. It is designed to blend perfectly with natural or manmade fibers to produce the highest quality textiles, with superb handle, drape and appearance. When blended in the weft of the fabric in the correct proportions, Kanecaron transmits its full FR qualities to the other fibers so that the entire fabric becomes flame retardant. Unlike chemical - treated fabrics, the FR qualities of Kanecaron will not wash out and are permanent. They last till the fabric is used



Kanecaron delivers 100% FR performance all the time, because it is built into the molecular structure of the fibre. When flame comes into contact with modacrylic fibre, non-combustible gases are released through microscopic pores thus smothering the fire, similar to the action of a gas-type fire extinguisher. Unlike treated fabrics, the FR performance in Kanecaron is permanent and cannot be affected by wear and will not wash out

Summary of Features and Benefits:

Features

Benefits

Inherently FR

Safer than “treatments”. No deterioration of performance after repeated laundering or dry cleaning.

Blend with standard Fibres

Viscose, Polyester, Acrylic, Cotton, Silk etc., meets all European FR standards

Normally used in the weft

Fabric produced with Kanecaron can be adapted quickly and easily from domestic to contract standards, simply by changing the weft.

Range of FR Fibre Solutions

Fibres with different levels of FR, enable fabric manufacturers to produce a whole range of cost effective solutions.

Natural feel

No synthetic aspect; finished products have a natural feel and cotton like touch.

Bright colours

No limit to the colours that can be achieved when using Kanecaron. Design preferences for bright or brilliant colours and hues can be easily met.

Stops burning quickly

Toxic fume production is rapidly halted by the virtually instantaneous flame shut-off.

Cost effective

Kanecaron fabrics are inherently
Fr, so no further treatments are necessary. Can be combined with standard non-FR fibres, helping to reduce costs.

Easy aftercare conditions

Simple maintenance: can be washed, laundered or dry cleaned often and retain both its brightness and full FR performance.

 Can accept soil-repellent treatments

Applying a stain resistant treatment does not affect the FR capability of the fabric.

 

Recommended yarns as per End Use:

Kanecaron SYS Fibre: For Upholstery & Drapery:

The Kanecaron SYS type has been specially developed for use in the weft with normal polyester warps in-order to produce inherently flame retardant fabrics for the contract Upholstery and Drapery markets. As SYS is a weft only solution, weavers can easily produce cost effective inherently FR fabrics.

Kanecaron SYS and polyester can be produced in a wide variety of fabric types, which are ideal for use in hotel rooms, restaurants and reception areas. Whether in drapery, bedspread or upholstery settings, the fabrics benefits from a natural look, attractive drape and comfortable feel.

Kanecaron PW Fibre: For Upholstery:

The Kanecaron PW type has been specially designed as higher flame retardant and higher heat resistant fibre for upholstery. It is cost effective, as it has been specially developed for being blended with conventional non-FR fibres, only used in filling which enables the entire fabric become inherently flame retardant for upholstery. Protex-W offers total design flexibility with no restriction on colours. FR quality of this fibre will not wash off or degrade even after repeated washing. The heat resistance of PW Fibre is higher than any other regular Kanecaron types.

Kanecaron PROTEX M FR Fibre: The inherent FR Blending Fibre for Protective Clothing:

Protex M is a part of the range of Kanecaron FR Fibres. It is designed to blend perfectly, in specified quantities, with natural or manmade fibres to produce the highest quality textiles, with superb handle, drape and appearance.

Protex M is a modified acrylic fibre with permanent flame retardant (FR) qualities. Unlike non-permanently FR treated cotton, the protective qualities of PROTEX don’t wear out. Nor does PROTEX       expose the skin to chemical additives.

When PROTEX blended work-wear is exposed to flaming, it chars rather then melt. This means it does not form molten droplets which can burn the skin. Instead, the char forms a protective layer which can give the wearer important extra time to get out of the danger area.
