Abstract

A heat resistant cloth for fire fighting comprises a rubber layer, a bonding layer containing a flame retardant, a polyester film with a metallic (e.g. aluminum) film deposited on both sides thereof, a bonding layer containing flame retardant, and a tetrafluoroethylene copolymer film which are layered and bonded together on a substrate fabric. The flame retardant contained in the bonding layers provides excellent flame resistance.
