A flame resistant textile fabric includes a coating having an expandable graphite, or a combination of an expandable graphite and a nanoclay, disposed on one or both of its first and second surfaces. The flame resistant textile fabrics may be used to make one or more components of a mattress, such as a filler cloth, or fabric fire barrier.

The present invention pertains to a fluorine-free composition for treating textile articles being water repellant, sol resistant and stain resistant, especially carpets comprising a first composition comprising an aqueous silicone emulsion, an aqueous dispersion of a silane quaternary ammonium salt and water and a second composition comprising a soil repellency component that is an aqueous dispersion of colloidal organosiloxane copolymers.

The invention relates to a textile protective material, in particular providing protection against radioactive harmful and/or toxic substances and/or against biological harmful and/or toxic substances and/or against chemical harmful and/or toxic substances, preferably a textile adsorption filter material, and to a method for the production thereof. The textile protective material is suitable in particular for producing protective equipment and protective objects and filters and filter materials of all types.

Socks or stockings including integrated gripping systems include gripping material disposed on external surfaces of a sole of the sock and gripping material disposed on internal surfaces of the sock. In some examples, the integrated gripping systems comprise a first set of gripping dots comprising gripping material applied to external surfaces of the sole of the sock and a second set of gripping dots comprising gripping material applied to internal surfaces of the sole of the sock. In some examples, the integrated gripping systems comprise a knitted fabric including gripping yarn, which includes knitted gripping portions disposed on internal surfaces of the sock and external surfaces of the sock.

A slip-resistant material is disclosed. According to embodiments of the disclosure, the slip-resistant material can partially conform to the body's contours during physical activity to eliminate, or at least to reduce, slippage. The slip-resistant material can be a coated lightweight, synthetic hexagonal mesh. The slip-resistant material can also be a base wicking fabric with soft nodules formed on it. The slip-resistant material can also be a base wicking fabric with a top layer comprising nodules and pores. The slip-resistant material can also be a combination of a base wicking fabric with a polymer-based thread. The embodiments of the disclosure are safe to be worn directly against skin and are comfortable, breathable, and durable. The embodiments of the disclosure can be used as a liner between an article and the wearer's skin to hold the article in place during movement.

A flame-retardant composition has a plurality of particles with at least one porosity therein, a flame retardant gas occupying the porosity, and a matrix material in which said particles are dispersed. A sealant applied to at least a portion of the particles, wherein the sealant substantially prevents the gas from escaping the porosities. The matrix is a flame-retardant composition adapted to be applied to various surfaces. The matrix may also function as the sealant. The sealant is formed of a material that will break down and release the gas in the presence of water or flame or other selected conditions. The sealant may be a polymer material. This solves the problem of applying flame-retardant qualities to various surfaces.
