Summary of Test Method4.1 The specimen is mounted in a vertical chimney with aglass front and ignited with a bunsen burner for 10 s.

10、Theheight and duration of flame and the mass percent retained bythe specimen are recorded.5. Significance and Use5.1 Tests made on rigid cellular materials in accordancewith the conditions described by this test method can be ofconsiderable value in comparing their burning characteristics.The height

11、 and duration of flame and the mass percent retainedby the specimen are recorded.5.2 This test method has been applied to flexible cellularmaterials and other plastics, but no detailed studies have beenconducted to determine its general applicability to thesematerials.5.3 In this procedure, the spec

12、imens are subjected to one ormore specific sets of laboratory test conditions. If different testconditions are substituted or the end-use conditions arechanged, it may not be possible by or from this test to predictchanges in the fire-test-response characteristics measured. Theresults are therefore

13、valid only for the fire-test-exposureconditions described in this procedure.6. Apparatus6.1 Test Chimney, conforming to the dimensions in Fig. 1,Fig. 2, and Fig. 3.

Test Specimens7.1 Cut six specimens from material of uniform density. Thespecimens shall be 254 by 19 by 19 mm and shall be free ofdust

20、, and the cut edges shall be smooth. If any specimen variesby more than 5 % from the average density of the six (see 9.1),the sample shall be considered unacceptable for testing by thistest method.8.

A new liner shall be installed for each specimen.9.7 Place the specimen support

27、 in the chimney so that thetop of the specimen is even with the top of the chimney, asshown in Fig. 4.9.8 Put the glass front in place and ignite the specimen byplacing the inner cone of the burner flame under the center ofthe specimen for 10 s. Simultaneous with placing the flameunder the specimen,

28、 start the timer to determine the time toextinguishment (T3). Keep the burner at an angle of about 15from the vertical as shown in Fig. 4.NOTE 3Accurate positioning of the burner is facilitated by use of acradle to hold the burner at the proper angle and distance from thespecimen.9.9 Measure the max

Precision and Bias313.1 Table 1, Table 2, and Table 3 are based on a roundrobin completed in 1988 in accordance with Practice E 691,involving seven materials tested by six laboratories. Thematerials included one phenolic (Material No. 1)

36、 and sixpolyurethanes (Material Nos. 27). Each test result was theaverage of six individual determinations. Each laboratoryobtained five test results for each material.13.1.1 Users of this test method shall apply the principlesoutlined in Practice E 691 to generate data specific to theirlaboratory a

37、nd materials, or between specific laboratories. Theprinciples in 13.2-13.2.3 would then be valid for such data.13.2 Concept of r and RIf srand sRhave been calculatedfrom a large enough body of data, and for test results that wereaverages from testing six specimens, the following applies:13.2.1 Repea
