Abstrakt: A study has been initiated of the effect of dyes on the flammability of cotton fabric. The initial phase reported here concerns the effects of dyes alone on all-cotton fabric, with representative dyes being selected from the reactive, sulfur, vat, ingrain, direct, and acid classes and from the fluorescent brightening agents. The level of Rammability of the dyed fahrics was measured by the oxygen index technique; thermal degradation in a nitrogen atmosphere was followed by thermogravimetric analysis. Many of the dyes increased oxygen index over that of the undyed fabric. Dyes also markedly influenced the path of thermal degradation. [ABSTRACT FROM PUBLISHER]
