SENW Introduces Oxidized PAN Fire Protection Fabric
Oxidized PAN does not melt, soften, shrink or drip under elevated temperatures, allowing it to retain structural integrity during fire exposure. According to SENW, the fiber begins to thermally degrade at approximately 500°C and maintains dimensional stability and oxidation resistance at that threshold.
The material is intended for applications — including aerospace interiors, electric vehicles, battery systems, defense platforms and infrastructure — where fire safety and thermal performance are design priorities.
