Which of the following blends have best flame retardancy ?

I. Cotton - Wool
II. Cotton - Spandex
III. Modacrylic - Spandex
IV. Modacrylic - Wool
V. Aramid - PVC

  • A.I and II are correct.
  • B.IV and V are correct.
  • C.II and III are correct.
  • D.III and IV are correct.

Answer: B

Modacrylic and aramid fibres are flame retardant by their chemistry, and PVC does not support burning, so the blends modacrylic-wool and aramid-PVC have the best flame retardancy. Cotton burns readily, which spoils the cotton-wool and cotton-spandex blends, and spandex is also highly flammable, so the modacrylic-spandex blend is poorer than the modacrylic-wool blend. The answer is IV and V.
