Abstract

Despite the panic caused by seeing fire engulfing people and property, scientific studies and technical statistics issued by agencies and organizations specialized in fire incidents worldwide confirm that deaths resulting from burns do not exceed 3% of fire victims. Meanwhile, the victims of toxic gases from fires range between 42% to 50%. Therefore, the toxicity of smoke resulting from the fire constitutes the main cause of death, It is necessary to achieve the best specifications in carpets to ensure safety and security for human health in fire in buildings and establishments, This can be by reducing the emissions of toxic gases from combustion via controlling the carpets construction, The objective of the research study different emissions such as the amount of carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide, smoke density and heat of combustion by using cone Calorimeter device to determine the best mixing ratio of pile fibers made from wool and polyester to reduce emissions produced when burned, The study sample consisted of (27) carpet, and the experimental scientific method was used, The hypothesis of the study is that reducing the amount of synthetic fiber materials in carpets decreases the toxic gases produced from combustion. The results concluded that the smoke density , co, co2 and heat of combustion by the samples with mixing ratio of 50% wool 50% polyester to 90% wool 10% polyester is less than with mixing of 40% wool 60% polyester to 10% wool 90% polyester. Thus mixing 50% wool 50% polyester has achieves the required safety carpets specifications.
