Abstract
Fire-retardant barriers are described which are useful for protecting military personnel and equipment from both fire and chemical and/or biological agents. The fire-retardant barriers are multilayered structures having desirable flammability characteristics and resistance to chemical and/or biological agents. The preferred barriers also possess favorable durability properties and are printable.
