The present invention includes pleated paper and planar paper coated with a fire suppressive ink, wherein the pleated paper is Kraft paper with a weight of 25 to 50 pounds, with pleat angles of about 88 to 92°, and pleat heights between approximately 3/32 of an inch and ⅛ of an inch, and the planar paper is Kraft paper with a weight of 40 to 60 pounds. The fire suppressive ink is preferably applied with a flexographic printing process and preferably comprises at least one inorganic fusible salt and an organic resin. The inventive pleated paper is an environmentally friendly packaging material with improved protective qualities, which can also shield items from fire, contain fires, and suppress fires to avoid thermal runaway. The inventive paper is particularly useful for packaging and shipping flammable items, such as lithium-ion batteries.

The invention relates to a fire retardant paper comprising reinforcing fibre, a fire retardant material and a binder system, wherein the binder system comprises a first organic binder and a second organic binder, wherein the first organic binder has a lower glass transition temperature than the second organic binder.

A wrapper well suited for use in aerosol delivery products, such as heat but not burn sticks is disclosed. The wrapper includes a base web made from cellulosic fibers combined with filler particles. The base web can be coated on at least one side with a permeability reducing composition and/or treated with a flame retardant salt. The base web is constructed with a basis weight, bulk, and permeability so as to produce aerosol delivery sticks with low combustion characteristics.

A bi-regional fiber with a cellulosic core and a wax outer sheath is disclosed. The sheath can comprise high melting temperature wax. The fiber may be produced by processing the natural fiber at temperatures less than 70° C. The fiber can be processed in a standard manner such as, for example, a Keir process which may include bleach at approximately 100° C. with a wax subsequently added at a temperature sufficient to disperse the wax over the fiber surface. The fibers are ignition resistant as measured by industry standard tests. The wax may comprise from about 0.4 to 25 percent or greater of the fiber by weight. The wax may be natural wax, synthetic or emulsified wax or blends thereof. The bi-regional fibers can be blended with other fibers including BRCF fibers to create fire resistant fabrics including clothing, blankets and household materials.
