Patent Images
1. A fire-retardant flexible protective clothing barrier, comprising:
- a first film component including a plurality of flexible layers containing an intermediate core layer of polymeric material serving as a chemical barrier and sandwiched between inner and outer bounding polymer layers containing fire-retardant material; and
a second component attached to the first component and including a fiber fabric substrate layer for imparting strength to the fire-retardant barrier and having inner and outer surfaces, the inner surface of which is attached to the inner bounding layers of the first film component, the attachment being effected by an interposed bonding adhesion layer and also containing fire-retardant material.

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