What are the important features of a tarp?
1. Breathability
Tarpaulin must be considered for its breathability, especially military tent fabric. The influencing factors of air permeability are structure, density, material, type of waterproof finishing agent, adhesion of resin and so on. With the increase of resin adhesion, the permeability of tarpaulin decreases.
2. Tensile strength
The tarpaulin must bear all kinds of pulling force during use. This requires the tarpaulin with high tensile strength, longitude and latitude tensile strength should not be too much difference. In particular, the tensile strength of large tents used as inflatable buildings is extremely important. General base fabric with high-strength polyester, vinylon and other long fiber fabrics. The strength of the product is mainly determined by the strength of the fiber material and the density of the fabric.
3. Flame retardancy
From the safety of use, it is required that the tarpaulin has good flame retardant. Flame retardancy can be obtained by selecting flame retardant fiber and flame retardant substrate. It can also be achieved by adding a flame retardant to the coating agent.
