Disclosed are uni-layer and bi-layer FR nonwoven fiber batts formed of
various blends of charring fibers such as FR treated rayon,
oxygen-depleting fibers such as modacrylic fibers and nonwoven fibers
such as carrier fibers and binder fibers and associated methods for
forming the same. Variously, the uni-layer and bi-layer FR nonwoven fiber
batts may include layers formed entirely of blends of charring fibers and
nonwoven fibers, layers formed entirely of blends of oxygen-depleting
fibers and nonwoven fibers and/or layers formed of blends of charring
fibers, oxygen-depleting fibers and nonwoven fibers.
