Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2008083017A2] Insect repellant fabrics which also have flame retardant properties are disclosed. The fabrics have insect repellant molecules absorbed in the fibers of the fabrics. The fabrics retain their insect repellant and flame retardant properties after laundering. The fabrics are suitable for use in clothing and, more particularly, are suitable for use in protective garments designed to be worn by individuals, such as industrial workers, military and rescue personnel, and firefighters, who may be at risk of exposure to both fire and disease carrying insects. The insect repellant molecules may be incorporated into the fabrics in a variety of ways including, but not limited to, immersing the fibers or fabrics in a bath containing an insect repellant and heating the bath.
