Abstract
A nonflammable sliver knit high pile fabric. The backing fabric is knitted from a flame retardant aramind spun yarn, the pile fibers are composed of a mixture of flame retardant rayon fibers and superwashed wool fibers and the back coating is constituted of a flame retardant composition. The fabric not only is flameproof, but it does not react to a flame by melting. It has good thermal insulation properties and is stable against shrinkage. The fabric is especially useful in the manufacture of wearing apparel intended for use in extreme environments, such as fire fighting and cold weather military operations.
