Abstract
A flame resistant fabric is formed from synthetic fibers, such as polyester fibers or non-aramid polyamide fibers. A first flame retardant is incorporated into the fibers by being intimately mixed with the polymer used to form the fibers. A second flame retardant is then surface applied to the fabric or to the yarns used to form the fabric. The fabric has a total flame retardant compound concentration of at least 5000 ppm. In one embodiment, the fabric can be combined with other fabric layers to produce a composite fabric product.
