Definitions

  • fire blanket relates to fire resistant fabrics suitable for use as fire blankets, fire barriers, fire stops, fire barriers for cavity walls or smoke blankets and methods of manufacturing the same.
  • fire blanket will be taken to include all the aforementioned products where the context permits.
  • prior known fire blanket comprises a flexible glass fibre fabric which is coated on each side with polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) , and blends of PTFE and fluoroelastomers or silicone elastomers (see for example, O-A-90/15898) .
  • PTFE polytetrafluoroethylene
  • fluoroelastomers or silicone elastomers see for example, O-A-90/15898 .
  • these prior known fabrics are very effective and ideally suited for industrial applications which also require a hard wearing robust product.
  • these fabrics are very expensive.
  • Chip pan fires that is to say fires caused by boiling oil or fat spilling over and igniting when cooking chipped potatoes or the like
  • Chip pan fires present further problems. It is not simply good enough to cover the flames to snuff out the fire, the blanket has to prevent combustible vapour permeating through the blanket and igniting on the side of the blanket remote from the burning oil or fat.
  • the fire blanket has to be flexible enough to drape completely over the flaming pan of oil or fat to exclude air from reaching the flames.
  • One aim of the present invention is to provide a fire blanket which is cheap and is effective at controlling fires.
  • a fire blanket comprises a flexible substrate coated on both faces with a coating comprising refractory inorganic particles embedded in an organic matrix of polymer latex.
  • a method of manufacturing a fire blanket comprising the steps of providing a flexible substrate applying to both sides of the substrate an aqueous slurry comprising inorganic refractory particles suspended in a polymer latex binder, and drying the slurry to form a coating of said particles embedded in an organic matrix of polymer latex on both sides of the substrate.
  • the polymer latex is selected to cross-link fully under alkaline conditions.
  • the inorganic particles can be one or more of cement, gypsum, plaster and sand.
  • Figure 1 shows schematically a cross-sectional view of a fire blanket constructed in accordance with the present invention
  • Figure 2 shows schematically apparatus for coating a fabric to make a fire blanket which is constructed in accordance with the present invention.
  • a fire blanket 9 comprises a knitted, woven or non-woven glass fibre substrate 10 coated on each face of the fabric with a coating 11 which comprises a mixture of inorganic refractory particles, such as, for example cement particles in an organic matrix of polymer latex such as, for example an acrylic latex binder.
  • inorganic refractory particles such as, for example cement particles in an organic matrix of polymer latex such as, for example an acrylic latex binder.
  • the preferred substrate 10 is made of glass fibre and can be made in a wide range of types and weights of material.
  • the glass fibre substrate may be a knitted, woven, or non-woven fabric, or mat, or scrim or a network of fibres such as a netting.
  • the fibres in the substrate should not be so widely spaced apart that it is difficult to form a coherent coating on the substrate, since the purpose of the coating is to provide a layer which is impenetrable by fire.
  • the preferred substrates are woven glass fibre fabrics.
  • the substrate may be made of other types of non- combustible, or low combustibility fibres, such as for example, an aromatic polyamide (eg. para-aramids such as Kevlar (trade mark of Du Pont Limited) , Twaron (trade mark of Enka Limited) or Technora (trade mark of Teijin Limited) or meta-aramids such as Nomex (trade mark of Du Pont Limited or Konex (trade mark of Teijin Ltd.), silica fibres, or polybenzimidazole (PBI) fibres.

  • para-aramids such as Kevlar (trade mark
  • the substrate to be coated is passed through a coroniser set at between 550 * C and 625'C.
  • the coroniser comprises a flame heated oven and is used to relax the glass fibres and set the crimp of the glass fibres, thus producing a more flexible fabric.
  • the coroniser also removes the size which is applied to the fibres to leave the fibres with thoroughly clean anionic surface.
  • the substrate is precoated with a thin layer of a cationic acrylic latex which will cross-link under alkaline conditions.
  • a cationic acrylic latex which will cross-link under alkaline conditions.
  • a suitable cationic acrylic latex is that sold by Rohm & Haas under the trade mark Primal Le 1126.
  • the precoat acrylic latex is dried at a temperature of between 120 to 130 * C which is below that at which the acrylic polymer will fully cross-link.
  • the precoat being cationic, bonds well to the anionic glass fibres but provides flexibility of bond as well.
  • the coating 11 is then applied to the precoat using the apparatus shown in Figure 2.
  • the apparatus comprises a tank 12 in which a slurry 12a is contained.
  • the preferred slurry is an aqueous slurry comprising cement particles mixed with an acrylic polymer latex (60% solids) and if desired contains an inhibitor, such as sodium citrate, to delay hydration of the cement for long enough to enable the slurry to be applied to the fabric 10.
  • the fabric 10 to be coated is pulled off a supply reel 14, drawn through the slurry 12a and passed between rods or rollers 13 each spaced a predetermined distance from the confronting surface of the fabric 10.
  • the slurry coatings 11 picked up on the fabric 10 are each effectively spread by the respective rods or rollers 13 to form a given weight of coatings on the fabric.
  • the weight of coatings may range from 120 g/m 2 to 300 g/m 2 .
  • the coating 11 is applied to the precoated substrate as an aqueous slurry comprising
  • the acrylic latex binder is a cationic acrylic latex which will cross-link in alkaline conditions and can be the same material as used for the precoat.
  • composition of the dried coating 11 obtained from a slurry comprising 18% acrylic latex binder, about 0.1% sodium citrate and 47% cement particles is 13.2% (by weight) binder, 0.3% sodium citrate, 86.5% cement particles.
  • the coated fabric is then passed through a heating zone 15 which may be a conventional oven, or include infrared heaters, or hot air dryers, where the coated fabric is heated to a temperature of the order of 170 to 200 * C to cross-link the acrylic polymer. Following heating, the coated fabric is wound up on a second reel 16.
  • a heating zone 15 which may be a conventional oven, or include infrared heaters, or hot air dryers, where the coated fabric is heated to a temperature of the order of 170 to 200 * C to cross-link the acrylic polymer.
  • the coated fabric is wound up on a second reel 16.
  • the speed of the fabric through the apparatus is controlled so as to ensure that with heavy weight coatings, for example, 300 g/m 2 , the coatings 11 are completely dry before rolling up on the reel 16.
  • Lighter coatings eg 120 g/m 2 can be processed faster than heavy weight coatings when using the same heating zone 15.
  • a fire retardant is added to the slurry to prevent the coating catching fire.
  • a suitable fire retardant is that known by the trade mark Calaban FRP 44 (manufactured by White Chemical Corporation of New Jersey USA) .
  • the fire retardant is added to the slurry providing that there is at least 10% (by weight) of binder present in the slurry.
  • a suitable aqueous slurry comprises 18.9% by weight binder, 9.4% by weight fire retardant, 0.24% sodium citrate, and 47.2% cement particles.
  • the content of fire retardant may vary from 6 to 10% by weight in the slurry.
  • the preferred inorganic particles are cement particles.
  • other inorganic particles could be used such as, for example, gypsum, plaster or sand.
  • inhibitors could be used to delay hydration for a sufficient length of time to permit easy coating of the substrates by a dipping technique.
