Oxidized Polyacrylonitrile (OPAN) Needle Felt

OPAN (also known as PANOX) is an oxidized polyacrylonitrile fiber that does not burn, melt, soften, or drip. As an internationally recognized standard for non-flammable textile fibers, OPAN is used across various industries as effective protection against fire and heat.

Its Limiting Oxygen Index (LOI) value is greater than 45%, which is significantly higher than that of most other fibers and indicates exceptional resistance to combustion. OPAN is electrically non-conductive and offers excellent chemical resistance.

It has been evaluated according to BSS-7229 for gas emissions during combustion and has been found to produce very low levels of toxic gases.
