High-strength polyimide fire blanket, covering electric welding spark protection operation safety

High-strength fire blanket made of polyimide

At industrial manufacturing and construction sites, welding operations are constantly threatened by flying sparks and molten slag. Statistics show that over 35% of industrial fires are caused by welding sparks. Traditional asbestos fire blankets, while offering some protection, have drawbacks such as being heavy, easily damaged, and posing a carcinogenic risk. Today, high-strength fire blankets made of polyimide materials are redefining safety standards for welding operations.

 

Polyimide fire blanket

1. Excellent fire resistance

Maximum temperature resistance: 500℃ (long-term) / 1000℃ (short-term)

Oxygen index > 36, meeting the standard for flame-retardant materials

Does not melt or drip when exposed to fire, effectively preventing secondary ignition

2. Outstanding mechanical strength

Tensile strength > 100 MPa

Tear strength > 50 N/mm

Excellent wear resistance, service life of more than 5 years

3. Excellent chemical stability

Acid and alkali resistant, corrosion resistant

Oil-resistant, prevents solvent penetration

Does not mildew or age

4. Environmental safety and multi-functionality

Free of asbestos and other harmful substances

No toxic smoke is released during combustion

Recyclable

Combines fire prevention, heat insulation, and anti-static functions

Can be combined with other materials to enhance performance
