Abstract

The present invention relates to fire resistant composite materials and to fire resistant fabric materials and mattresses made therefrom. The composite materials include (a) a substrate selected from the group consisting of cotton, rayon, lyocell and blends thereof; and (b) a coating consisting essentially of water, ammonium polyphosphate, binder material, cross-linking material, aluminum trihydrate, prefarbricated microcells, thickener material, a surfactant, surfactant-generated microcells and a catalyst. The binder material bonds the ammonium polyphosphate, cross-linking material, aluminum trihydrate, prefarbricated microcells, thickener material, surfactant, surfactant-generated microcells and catalyst together and to the substrate such that the substrate is coated with the coating.

Claims (16)

1. A composite material comprising:

(a) a planar substrate selected from the group consisting of cotton, rayon, lyocell and blends thereof; and

(b) a film coating coated on the planar substrate, wherein the coating consists essentially of about 10% to about 20% by weight water, about 25% to about 40% by weight ammonium polyphosphate, about 15% to about 25% by weight acrylic binder material, about 0.5% to about 5.0% by weight cross-linking material, about 5% to about 10% by weight aluminum trihydrate, about 5% to about 15% by weight prefabricated microcells, about 0.1% to about 1.0% by weight thickener material, about 1.0% to about 8.0% by weight surfactant and surfactant-generated microcells, and about 0.1% to about 2.0% by weight catalyst,

wherein said binder material bonds the ammonium polyphosphate, cross-linking material, aluminum trihydrate, prefabricated microcells, thickener material, surfactant, surfactant-generated microcells and catalyst together and to the substrate such that the substrate is coated with said coating, and

wherein said composite material is drapable.

2. The composite material according to claim 1 , wherein said substrate is coated on one side with said coating.

3. The composite material according to claim 1 , wherein said substrate is coated on both sides with said coating.

4. The composite material according to claim 1 , 2 or 3 , wherein said material further includes a water repellent material.

5. The composite material according to claim 1 , 2 or 3 , wherein said material further includes an antifungal material.

6. The composite material according to claim 1 , 2 or 3 , wherein said material further includes an antibacterial material.

7. The composite material according to claim 1 , 2 or 3 , wherein said material further includes a surface friction agent.

8. The composite material according to claim 1 , 2 or 3 , wherein said material further includes a flame retardant material.

9. The composite material according to claim 1 , 2 or 3 , wherein said material further includes an algaecide.

10. The composite material according to claim 1 , 2 or 3 , wherein said material is colored with dye.

11. A mattress fabric comprising a decorative fabric and a composite material according to claim 1 .

12. A mattress comprising the mattress fabric of claim 11 .
