Investigation of Flame Retardant Effects of Resins on the Flammability of Leather

Natural leather products, which are by-products of the meat industry, used because their high air vapor permeability and elegant appearance compared to synthetic leather. The production flame retardant is important for some types such as motorcyclist jackets, flight or automotive upholstery leathers, military boots. It frequently mentioned in literature that resinous chemicals create effects textile materials due nitrogen content. Urea, melamine dicyandiamide resins always traditional retanning process cattle leathers. has been investigated these highest effect on In study, 2%, 3% 4% ratios were studied three resins; resistance leathers by LOI TGA analysis. study also examined chemical surface with FTIR SEM analyses.
