Intumescent coatings consisting of branched-polyethyleneimine (BPEI) and ammonium polyphosphate (APP) solution were successfully applied on polyester fabrics by the layer-by-layer assembly technique to enhance the flame retardant and anti-dripping properties of polyester fabrics. The surface morphology of fabrics revealed that the coatings thoroughly covered the fabrics. The assessment of the vertical burning test of thin material (UL-94 rating VTM 0) indicated that the flame retardancy of coated polyester fabrics was improved significantly as compared with the uncoated fabric. The self-extinguishing ability and anti-dripping behaviors of coated polyester fabrics were also enhanced markedly. The improvement of flame retardancy depends on the number of coating layers and the amount of APP. However, after washing, the flame retardancy decreases to some extent. The morphology of char exhibits the typical structure of intumescent char on coated fabrics. The assessment of mechanical properties revealed that the intumescent coating via layer-by-layer assembly did not deteriorate the strength of the fabric. The increasing number of coated layers leads to the slight increase of the breaking force of the fabric; however, the increasing number of layers and the increasing amount of prepared APP lead to increased rigidity of the fabrics.

Layer Assembly

The application of an oppositely charged dual polymer system is a promising approach to enhance paper strength. In this work, modified chitosan (MCN), a cationic polymer, and carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC), an anionic polymer, were used sequentially to improve paper strength. The adsorption of MCN on cellulose fibers was analyzed via polyelectrolyte titration. The formation of MCN/CMC complex in water and the deposition of this complex on silicon wafers were investigated by means of atomic force microscope and quasi-elastic light scattering techniques. The results showed that paper strength was enhanced slightly with a layer-by-layer assembly of the polymers. However, if the washing stage, which was required for layer-by-layer assembly, was eliminated, the MCN/CMC complex was deposited on fibers more efficiently, and the paper strength was improved more significantly. The significant improvement was attributed to the extra development of fiber bonding, confirmed further by scanning electron microscope observation of the bonding area of fibers treated with or without washing. However, the brightness of papers was somewhat decreased by the deposition of the complex on fibers. Higher paper strength also was achieved using rapid drying rather than air drying.
