flammable fabrics

Flammable fabrics are textiles that can catch fire easily when exposed to heat, flames, or sparks. Some materials, like certain synthetic fibers, are more prone to igniting quickly and burning rapidly, which can pose safety risks. Many fabrics are manufactured or treated with flame-retardant chemicals to reduce this risk, especially in clothing and furnishings. Understanding fabric flammability helps in choosing safer textiles for different environments, and regulations often set standards to minimize fire hazards related to fabric use.
