Polyester (PET) fabric is insecure to use since it melts at 249–290 °C, such molten PET could drip on underlying surfaces or human skin and hence become harmful. The rapidly ignited flammable materials found in nearby areas might lead damage life property of consumers. In this research, the was modified avoid these disadvantages. Thus we investigate effect phosphorylated sol-gel coating material UV/Ozone pre-modified polyester sample for different periods. thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) ignition properties (UL/94) were studied all samples under test. with improved flammability behavior. Also, prior modification activate surface polyester, thus stability flame retardant.
