| Publisher Description: In 2009, the National Institute of Science and Technology and American Fiber Manufacturers Association held a workshop on fire blocking barrier fabrics for soft furnishings. This manuscript discusses the past, present, and future state of the BF landscape based on knowledge obtained from the workshop and the subsequent knowledge gathered from literature and stakeholders. This review is the first part of a three manuscript series stemming from the workshop. The next two manuscripts will review mattress and upholstered furniture. The reviews will include discussions of construction, flammability testing, regulations, and the role of fire blocking barrier fabrics. |
