How does fabric softener affect the flammability of different fabrics?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Karolina [17]4 years ago
5 0
<span>Research shows that fabric softeners decrease flame resistance. The flame resistance of a fabric can be increased in a variety of ways. Most often, the fabric is treated with special flame resistant chemicals. Synthetic fabrics, such as polyester, are naturally flame resistant. These fabrics have a property called thermoplasticity, where the fabric naturally melts and shrinks when exposed to flame. This prevents these fabrics from igniting and burning as easily as other fabrics. Basic properties of a fabric, such as porosity, can also influence flame resistance. Larger pores allow for oxygen to be more present in the fabric, making it more flammable.</span>

Describe Chemical and physical changes of ice water placed in the refrigerator
Talja [164]
So in a chemical change, the product would loses its properties, would form new products and would not be easily reversed.


In a physical change, the products WILL NOT lose any of their properties, WILL NOT form any new products and WILL be easily reversed.

Talking about Water turning to ice I would say it’s all about physical change and not chemical change.
But I would suggest you to either make a research about it or ask your teacher :))
