Summary of Test Method4.1 This test method employs a standard test specimen (100 by 356 mm) with a thickness up to 13 mm, mounted in a U-shapedmetal fram

17、e. The specimen is ignited by means of a 38 mm high flame from an appropriate burner, and the burning rate of thematerial is determined.4.2 The rate of burning is determined by measurements of the horizontal distance burned in relation to the time of burning, andreported for each set of specimens.5.

18、 Significance and Use5.1 This test method provides a standard laboratory procedure for measuring and comparing the burning rates of polymericmaterials under specified controlled conditions.5.2 The rate of burning is affected by such factors as density, direction of rise, and type and amount of surfa

19、ce treatments. Thethickness of the finished specimens must also be taken into account.These factors must be considered in order to compare materialson the same basis.5.3 In this procedure, the specimens are subjected to one or more specific sets of laboratory test conditions. If different testcondit

20、ions are substituted or the end-use conditions are changed, it is not always possible by or from this test method to predictchanges in the fire-test-response characteristics measured. Therefore, the results are valid only for the fire test exposure conditionsdescribed in this procedure.6. Apparatus6

21、.1 The apparatus shall be as shown in Figs. 1-6 and shall include the following:6.1.1 Test ChamberAchamber approximately 380 by 355 by 200 mm constructed of 1.251.50 mm steel sheet and fabricatedin accordance with Fig. 1.6.1.2 Laboratory BurnerConstructed in accordance with Specification D5025.NOTE

24、dersupport, as shown in Fig. 2 and Fig. 3. The base of the support shall not obstruct the ventilation holes in the base of the cabinet.NOTE 3Limited data indicates that the use of a “drip tray” under the specimen holder does not significantly affect the test results. If differences areobserved by th

Theinterior dimensions of the U-shaped frames are 50 mm wide by 330 mm long. A specimen that softens and bends at the flamingend so as to cau

A device that is suitable for use for supporting this type of material is anadditional U-shaped frame containing the specimen, spanned by 0.25-mm wires of heat-resistant composition at 25 mm intervalsstarting 38 mm from the open end. The device

Hazards7.1 During the course of combustion, gas

29、es or vapors, or both, are evolved and have the potential to be hazardous. Precautionsshall be taken to protect the operator.8. Test Specimens8.1 A minimum of five specimens 100 6 5 mm wide by a minimum of 300 mm long by thickness up to a maximum of 13 mmare prepared by cutting from the test materia

30、l. If the test material has a coating, covering, or construction that is considereddirectional in nature, and it has a directional effect on the burning rate, then specimens are produced by cutting five specimens inboth the transverse and longitudinal directions.8.2 Cut specimens from uniform densit

31、y samples. The maximum thickness of any specimen shall be 13 mm. If any materialto be tested exceeds this, it shall be cut to the above thickness by a mechanical process applied to the side which does not facethe occupant compartment, so that the specimen shall include the primary surface of the par

32、t. In case of materials made of differentcomposition which are not composite materials, all the layers within a depth of 13 mm from the surface facing towards theoccupant compartment shall be tested individually, as shown at the Fig. 7. Any material that does not adhere to other materials atevery po

33、int of contact shall be tested separately.Any material that adheres to other materials at every point of contact shall be testedas a composite with other material(s). Record the information on specimen preparation in the test report.8.3 Where it is not possible to obtain a flat specimen because of t

34、he component configuration, cut the specimen to the maximumthickness of 13 mm at any point, from the area with the least curvature, and in such a manner as to include the face side.8.4 The minimum width and length of the specimen shall be 95 and 300 mm, respectively. Use the maximum available length

35、or width of a specimen (as described in 8.1) where either dimension is less than the specified values.8.5 For composites, laminates, or surface-treated samples, the side nearest to the compartment occupant shall be placed facingdown during testing.8.6 If the materials grain pattern or construction i

36、s such that it has a directional effect on the burning rate, conduct the testingin both the transverse and longitudinal directions, as described in 8.1. Test five specimens in each direction.9. Conditioning9.1 Unless otherwise agreed upon, materials shall be conditioned for at least 24 h at 2362C an

37、d 50610 % relative humidityprior to testing.9.2 All specimens shall be tested in a laboratory atmosphere of 15 to 35C and 40 to 75 % relative humidity. For convenience,the specimens can be stored up to 1 h in closed polyethylene bags after conditioning and prior to testing.10. Procedure10.1 Place th

38、e test chamber inside a laboratory exhaust hood.NOTE 4The proper control of the hood is necessary to ensure the proper draft. Adjust the baffles or the exhaust motor speed, or both, so that the facevelocity of the hood shall be constant in the range of 0.1 m/s 75 ft/min. It is possible that the effe

39、ctiveness of the hood will change when the door tothe lab is opened and closed.10.2 Place samples with napped or tufted surface on a flat surface and comb twice against the nap using the metal comb at least110 mm in length, with seven to eight teeth per 25 mm.NOTE 1Material A has a non-adhering inte

40、rface with material B and is tested separately. Part of material B is within 13.0 mm of the occupantcompartment air space, and materials B and C adhere at every point of contact; therefore B and C are tested as a composite. The cut is in material C asshown, to make a specimen 13.0 mm thick.FIG. 7 Sp

41、ecimen Preparation (Illustrative Example)D5132 17510.3 Place the test specimen between the two matching U-shaped frames so that the frames hold both long sides and one endof the specimen.10.4 Place the burner remote from the specimen, ignite, and adjust it to produce a blue flame 38 6 2 mm high. Adj

42、ust the gassupply and the air ports of the burner until a yellow-tipped blue flame is produced and then increase the air supply until the yellowtip just disappears. Measure the height of the flame, and, if necessary, readjust to obtain a flame 38 mm high.10.5 Place the burner inside the open end of

43、the test chamber and position the burner to ensure that the center of the burner topis 19 6 1 mm below the center of the bottom edge of the specimen at the open end of the specimen holder when the specimenis in the specimen testing position.10.6 Place the mounted specimen in the horizontal testing p

44、osition in the specimen holder support inside the test chamber.10.7 Turn on the exhaust hood.10.8 Move the flame into contact with the specimen for a period of 15 s, then extinguish the exposure flame by turning off thegas supply or by removing the flame from under the specimen.10.9 Observe the lead

45、ing edge of the flame front, starting the timer when the scribed mark 38 mm from the open end of thesample holder is reached.10.10 Measure the time it takes the leading edge of the flame front to progress to the line scribed 292 mm from the open endof the top or bottom U-shaped frame. If the flame d

46、oes not reach this specified end point, time its progress to the furthest distancereached. If the specimen stops burning before it has burned for 60 s and has not burned more than 50 mm past the 38 mm scribedline, no burn rate is calculated.11. Calculation11.1 Calculate the burning rate from the fol
