3、aboratory screening procedure for com-paring relative extent and time of burning and loss of mass ofrigid thermoset cellular plastics. This test method is to be usedsolely to establish relative burning characteristics and shall notbe considered or used as a fire-hazard classification.1.1.1 This test

5、address all of thesafety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety, health, and environmental practices and deter-mine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. Aspecific precautionary statement is

6、 given in 1.2.1.4 This standard is used to measure and describe theresponse of materials, products, or assemblies to heat andflame under controlled conditions, but does not by itselfincorporate all factors required for fire hazard or fire riskassessment of materials, products, or assemblies under ac

17、ternational Standards, Guides and Recommendations issued by the World Trade Organization Technical Barriers to Trade (TBT) Committee.1results are therefore valid only for the fire-test-exposureconditions described in this procedure.6. Apparatus6.1 Test Chimney, conforming to the dimensions in Fig. 1

18、.The body of the chimney shall be made of non-corrodingmetal. Fastened into the chimney is an insert made of0.025-mm thick aluminum foil. The insert shall be held inplace by a stainless steel channel that carries three pins tosupport the specimen. A heat-resistant glass panel forms thefront wall of

19、the chimney (see Figs. 2 and 3). A scale, inmillimeters, graduated at 10-mm intervals shall be provided atone side of the glass panel for determining flame height (seeFig. 1 and Fig. 4). The scale shall begin from a height of 51 mmabove the bottom of the chimney.6.2 Timer, capable of measuring to th

20、e nearest 0.1 s fordetermining the duration of burning.6.3 BurnerA standard gas burner with a 9.5-mm insidediameter barrel capable of producing a flame with an innercone temperature of 960 6 5C is required to ignite thespecimens. See Specification D5025 for burner construction.6.4 Balance, capable o

22、remove products of combus-tion.7. Test Specimens7.1 Six specimens shall be cut from a material of uniformdensity. The specimens shall be 254 6 1mmby196 0.5 mmby 19 6 0.5 mm and shall be free of dust, and the cut edgesshall be smooth.7.2 If any single specimen varies by more than 20 % fromthe average

23、 density of the six specimens (see 9.1), the sampleshall be considered unacceptable for testing by this testmethod.8. Conditioning8.1 Condition the specimens for a minimum of 24 h at atemperature of 23 6 2C and a relative humidity of 50 6 10 %.8.2 The specimens shall remain in the temperature- andhu

24、midity-controlled atmosphere until immediately prior totesting. For convenience, the specimens can be stored up to 1h in closed polyethylene bags after conditioning and prior totesting.9. Procedure9.1 Determine the density of each specimen in accordancewith Test Method D1622.9.2 Weigh and record the

25、 mass (M ) of each specimen to thenearest 0.01 g.9.3 Weigh and record the mass (S1) of the specimen supportto the nearest 0.01 g.9.4 Ignite and adjust the burner so that the inner blue coneis 25 to 35 mm high. Further adjust the burner until thetemperature at the top of the inner cone is 960 6 5C.NO

26、TE 2To obtain 960C, it will be necessary to use a burner withpropane gas, or natural gas. In order to minimize the time and frequencyrequired for temperature calibration, it is necessary to maintain a steadysupply of gas. Thermocouples have been found useful to make thistemperature measurement.9.5 I

27、mpale the specimen on the three pins of the specimensupport, with the top of the specimen even with the top of thespecimen support as shown in Fig. 3. It is possible thathigh-density cellular plastics will require holes to be drilled inthe specimen to allow insertion of the pins. When required, theh

28、oles must be drilled at the time of specimen preparation. (Ifholes are drilled, the specimen shall be weighed after drilling,see 9.2.)9.6 Line the chimney with aluminum foil so that it is againstthe sides and back of the chimney and flush with the bottom.Place the shiny side of the aluminum foil tow

29、ards the testspecimen. A new liner shall be installed for each specimen.9.7 Place the specimen support 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

30、flame under the center ofthe specimen for 10 s. Simultaneous with placing the flameunder the specimen, start the timer to determine the time toextinguishment (Te). 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 u

31、se of acradle to hold the burner at the proper angle and distance from thespecimen.9.9 Measure the maximum flame height (H), during com-bustion of the specimen, to the nearest 10 mm with theFIG. 3 Test Specimen Impaled on Specimen Support (Side View)FIG. 4 Burner Position Under Specimen in Chimney (

32、Front View)D3014 183flame-height scale on the front of the chimney and record theheight. If the flame rises above the top of the scale, record as250 + mm.9.10 Stop the timer when combustion of the specimenceases and record as time to extinguishment (Te) to the nearestsecond. If the time to extinguis

33、hment is less than 10 s, note thetime but continue to apply the flame for 10 s.9.11 After cooling, remove the specimen support and speci-men and weigh, without removing the specimen, to the nearest0.01 g, and record (S2).9.12 Clean the specimen support and repeat 9.5 9.11 untilall specimens have bee

38、g.13. Precision and Bias313.1 Table 1, Table 2, and Table 3 are based on a roundrobin completed in 1988 in accordance with Practice E691,involving seven materials tested by six laboratories. Thematerials included one phenolic (Material No. 1) and sixpolyurethanes (Material Nos. 27). Each test result

39、 was theaverage of six individual determinations. Each laboratoryobtained five test results for each material.13.1.1 It is recommended that users of this test methodapply the principles outlined in Practice E691 to generate dataspecific to their laboratory and materials, or between specificlaborator

40、ies.13.2 The concepts of repeatability and reproducibility areimportant measures of the equivalence procedure, but cannot,alone, determine equivalence. Inferences from applying esti-mates based only upon variability to equivalence are likely tobe incorrect and can easily lead to improper decisions b

41、eingmade. The data in Table 1, Table 2, and Table 3 shall not berigorously applied to acceptance or rejection of material, asthose data are specific to the round robin and are not to berepresentative of other lots, conditions, materials, or laborato-ries.13.3 BiasThere are no recognized standards on

42、 which tobase an estimate of bias for this test method.14.
