Emtex®
Flameproofing agent (with binding agent)
for woven and tufted textiles


Highly effective flameproofing effects Good raw edge strength, and Tuft and filament anchorage Halogen-free Low-fuming

Product description

Flameproofing systems play a crucial role in safety-relevant areas of everyday life. For this, high standards are set especially for products used in the aircraft industry. This applies to a special degree also to the floor coverings used, which, in addition to the requirements concerning flameproofing, smoke gas density and toxicity as well as antistatics, also have to meet "classic" requirements, such as raw edge bonding and anchorage of pile and tuft. With Emtex® W 477 as well as Emtex® W 174 and Emtex® W 177, Weserland offers a selection of halogen-free and low-fuming flameproofing compounds for this segment, some with an antistatic effect for coating needlefelts and carpets.

Owing to discolouration, these flameproofing compounds are largely applied in a slop-padding process, it being necessary to gear the quantity used to the type of fibre, the fabric structure as well as the degree of flame resistance and antistatic quality desired. When flameproofed wool is used in the pile of goods to be finished, the requirements for the aircraft industry are usually met with an add-on of approx. 800-1200 g/qm (wet).

To achieve optimum film properties, the drying temperatures should not be below 120° C. If it is necessary to adjust the viscosity, diluting can be done with water or thickening agent (Wesopret® series) added.

How to store and discharge
Be sure to note that to obtain a homogenous product, with systems containing solids it is necessary to stir up the container before each discharge. When stored in storage tanks, there should be an intermittent stirring apparatus or a stirring apparatus that runs slowly.
