- Fiber Properties
Fiber properties Teijinconex® offers excellent heat resistance compared to other synthetic fibers.
- Non-Flammability
With a limited oxygen index (LOI) of > 27, Teijinconex® is inherently flameproof and heat resistant up to 400 °C (750 °F) – a property that doesn't diminish with repeated laundering. It doesn't burn or melt either. So, when the heat is on, protective clothing made with Teijinconex® performs, and won't stick to skin.
- Material Features
- Chemical Resistant
- Dimensional Stability
- Flame Resistant
- Heat Resistance
- High Durability
- Thermal Protection
Teijinconex® has a low thermal conductivity coefficient, with typically 0.04 - 0.05 W/mK (measured in a fabric). It means Teijinconex®-based protective clothing shields wearers from the heat of the flame, minimizing skin damage.
- Long-term Heat Resistance
Teijinconex® offers excellent long-term heat resistance. Because of this, it provides a longer lifetime for automotive hoses, industrial felt, filtration bags, and other products that operate in severe heat conditions.
