Importances of flammability testing to various materials

Author: Date :2019-07-05 Views: order
Flammability (sometimes called combustion, fire, or flame) testing exposes the product directly to an external flame. In some procedures or standards, a component successfully passes the fire test if the flame is extinguished within a specified amount of time. Component and device manufacturers will want to subject their product to fire testing to ensure the part becomes self-extinguishing; does not violently burn; does not result in an explosive fire; or that the spreading of the surface burning is prevented.
 
Flame testing typically requires that a laboratory have a test chamber with adequate venting, fan, and viewing window. The source of the fire comes from a propane torch with an appropriate nozzle. Depending on the test procedure or standard, a timing device, cleaning supplies, and measurement devices can be used.
 
 
Flammability testing is extremely important when considering the use of materials in confined spaces that are susceptible to an ignition source. The most common example being that of motor vehicle interiors where matches, cigarettes, etc. can cause a vehicle fire, endangering occupants.
 
All automotive manufacturers require certification for flammability at the time of product development and most OEMs require annual recertification for each product.
 
The main purpose of this testing is to study the effects of flame on materials, such as interior fabrics, seat cushions, seat belts or even structural components such as plastics or foam. Most standards seek to test burn resistance or burn rates of materials on a pass/fail basis.
 
Qinsun-lab has many types flammability tester for various materials.such as textile flammability test machines 、toy flammability tester  、Fabric Surface Flammability Tester and Furniture flammability tester etc.
