Fiber reinforced composite fabrics have become very ambitious engineering structures in recent years and have successfully replaced current metallic and other materials in many important sectors of industry especially in automotive. The applications of composite materials are being increased nowadays and this will increase future because of low cost manufacturing, suitable for mass production In order to increase the market penetration and because of current stringent legistation to increase safety, improvements in flame retardancy have been given significant priority especially in automotive industry. In this study, recycled e-glass/cotton reinforced with epoxy resin composite felt is produced with different fabric mass per unit area. The main purpose of the investigation illustrated in this study has been evaluated flammability behaviour. Flame retardant is applied with different volume ratio (1, 3, 5 %) for determining the flammability of textile fabrics. These results show that percentage of natural fibers has positive effect on improving flammability behavior of fabrics.
