| ICL Industrial Products launched fire retardant TexFRon, useful for a broad range of fabric finishes |
TexFRon™ products are water-based dispersions designed to meet stringent flame retardant requirements for a broad range of fabric finishes.
ICL Industrial Products (ICL-IP) announced the launch of TexFRon™ product line, next-generation flame retardants developed to provide a sustainable textile fire safety solution. The TexFRon™ product line's efficiency reduces the textile end-product chemical footprint.
TexFRon™ products are water-based dispersions designed to meet stringent flame retardant requirements for a broad range of fabric finishes. Pre-launch field testing has confirmed that TexFRon™ product line is sustainable and durable, even after many washing cycles.
The TexFRon™ series includes four separate products:
- TexFRon 9025 and TexFRon 9020: flame retardancy solutions for soak-and-wash-durable FR coating and back-coating formulations
- TexFRon P and TexFRon P+: flame retardancy solutions based on acrylic co-polymer emulsions with chemically-bound bromine
- Designed to enable textile formulators and finishers to produce FR cotton, polyester and cotton/polyester fabrics durable up to 50 laundry cycles
