Flameproof textile surface structures

Abstract

The invention relates to textile surface structures containing A) 20 to 90 wt % melamine fibres A), and B) 10 to 80 wt % flameproof polyester fibres B).

We claim:  
     
         1 . Textile fabrics comprising 
 A) from 20 to 90% by weight of melamine fiber A), and    B) from 10 to 80% by weight of flame resistant polyester fiber B).    
     
     
         2 . Textile fabrics as claimed in  claim 1 , comprising 
 C) up to 40% by weight of non polyester flame resistant fiber C).    
     
     
         3 . Textile fabrics as claimed in  claims 1  to  2 , wherein the non polyester flame resistant fibers C) are selected from aramid fibers, flame resistant viscose fibers and flame resistant modacrylics.  
     
     
         4 . Textile fabrics as claimed in any of  claims 1  to  3 , comprising 
 D) up to 25% by weight of non flame resistant fibers D).  
 
     
     
         5 . Textile fabrics as claimed in any of  claims 1  to  4 , wherein the non flame resistant fibers D) are polyamide fibers.  
     
     
         6 . Textile fabrics as claimed in any of  claims 1  to  5 , selected from wovens and nonwovens.  
     
     
         7 . The use of textile fabrics as claimed in any of  claims 1  to  6  for manufacturing heat protective clothing and flame protective clothing.  
     
     
         8 . The use of textile fabrics as claimed in any of  claims 1  to  6  in vehicles and spaces at risk from fire.  
     
     
         9 . A use as claimed in  claim 8 , wherein the textile fabrics are used in seating furniture, lying furniture, mattress covers, wallcoverings and wallpapers.
