ABSTRACT:
A fire-resistant fabric is formed by standing warps and wefts of a fire-resistant yarn such as a carbon fibre yarn. Each standing warp is covered by covering warps of a wear-resistant yarn which are cross-woven on the respective standing warps and which are bound on one side of the standing warps by the wefts. The covering warps and the wefts are closely beaten up to the fell of the fabric after each pick so that the covering warps form, on one surface of the fabric, ribs which give the fabric a hard wearing outer surface and which protect the fire-resistant yarns from wear. When subjected to fire, the wear-resistant yarn is removed but the fire-resistant warp and weft yarns form a mesh or grid which prevents the passage of flame.
