Alexiflam NF—Novel Method for Durable
Flame Retardation of Cotton-Based Fabrics
Robert Brookins, Research and Development, Alexium Inc.,
Greenville, SC, [email protected]
Flame retardant cotton-based fabrics are a significant segment
of the FR textile market with over 300 million square yards sold
each year. For decades, THPX-based chemistry has been the
standard FR treatment due its low cost, exceptional durability, and
effective flame retardation. However, the process used to apply
this chemistry is notably process intensive and requires specialized
equipment. To provide a cost effective and facile alternative,
Alexium has developed a reactive phosphorus-based polymer called
Alexiflam NF. This product has a number of benefits including
ultra-low formaldehyde (essentially formaldehyde free), effective
flame retardation of cotton/polyester blends, and wash durability
for 50+ laundering cycles. Notably, Alexiflam NF can be applied
with standard textile finishing equipment, without the need for an
ammoniation chamber. This talk will provide an overview of this​

product and its performance on a range of fabrics.
