The ligno-cellulosic Jute fiber, which holds the second largest volume among the natural cellulosic
fibers after Cotton. This study is focuses on the determination of flame-retardancy properties of pure
Jute and Jute-Cotton fabrics treated with Pyrovatex CP New at various concentrations (50%, 60%, 70%,
80%, 90% owf, M:L: 1:10, 1:7, 1:5). A significant improvement in the flame-retardancy was determined
on both fabrics. After ignition period, the recorded flame spread time was zero second on both FR treated
fabrics; on the other hand, it was measured 21 seconds and 28 seconds to burn the entire length (15 cm)
of untreated Jute and Jute-Cotton fabrics, respectively. Within these flame-spread times, the char length
was 2.2 cm and 2.73 cm in Jute and Jute-Cotton fabrics, respectively. Tensile and tear strength also
markedly decreased markedly after the FR finish in both warp and weft directions of both fabrics. The
vertical flammability results reported in this study show the potential application of Pyrovatex CP New
on Jute-based materials.
