Fire safety propaganda and education is crucial for protecting the public and their property. However, popularization of science regarding fire- and flame-retardant-related knowledge, as an important strategy to improve the national awareness of fire safety and reduce the occurrence of fire accidents, is currently limited. This paper presents a simple method for fabricating “expandable” flame retardant fabric coatings. Chemical knowledge, especially the three aspects of combustion, flame retardant materials, and flame retardant mechanisms, is popular among young people owing to the public’s accessible and popular art forms, including the design of interesting and vivid experiments, and the animation of mechanisms. The flame retardant fabrics may be prepared in the laboratory and at home. In this study, the multidimensional popular science experiments on the “Prevent Fire in Unburnt” fabrics designed for the public of all ages not only attracts teenagers to chemistry but also enables practical frontier scientific achievements, which facilitates the improvement of the public’s awareness of fire safety and scientific quality.
