34、.1.1 DiscussionA fire may pose one or more types ofhazard to people, animals, or property. These hazards areassociated with the environment and with a number of fire-test-response characteristics of materials, products, or assem-blies including but not limited to ease of ignition, flame spread,rate

35、of heat release, smoke generation and obscuration, toxicityof combustion products and ease of extinguishment.3.2.2 fire performance, nresponse of a material, product,or assembly in a specific fire, other than in a fire test involvingcontrolled conditions (different from fire-test-response charac-ter

36、istic, q.v.).3.2.2.1 DiscussionThe ASTM policy on fire standardsdistinguishes between the response of materials, products orassemblies to heat and flame, “under controlled conditions,”which is fire-test-response characteristic, and “under actual fireconditions,” which is fire performance. Fire perfo

37、rmancedepends on the occasion or environment and may not bemeasurable. In view of the limited availability of fire-performance data, the response to one or more fire tests,appropriately recognized as representing end-use conditions, isgenerally used as a predictor of the fire performance of amateria

38、l, product, or assembly.3.2.3 fire scenario, ndetailed description of conditions,including environmental, of one or more of the stages frombefore ignition to the completion of combustion in an actualfire at a specific location, or in a full-scale simulation.3.2.4 fire-test-response characteristic, n

39、response charac-teristic of a material, product, or assembly, to a prescribedsource of heat or flame, under controlled fire conditions; suchresponse characteristics may include but are not limited to easeof ignition, flame spread, heat release, mass loss, smokegeneration, fire endurance, and toxic p

40、otency of smoke.3.2.4.1 DiscussionA fire-test-response characteristic canbe influenced by variables of exposure such as ignitionintensity, ventilation, geometry of item or enclosure, humidity,or oxygen concentration. It is not an intrinsic property such asspecific heat, thermal conductivity, or heat

41、 of combustion,where the value is independent of test variables. A fire-test-response characteristic may be described in one of severalterms. Smoke generation, for example, may be described assmoke opacity, change of opacity with time, or smoke weight.No quantitative correlation need exist between v

42、alues of aresponse characteristic for two or more materials, products, orassemblies, as measured by two or more approaches, or testedunder two or more sets of conditions for a given method.3.2.5 flashover, nrapid transition to a state of total surfaceinvolvement in a fire of combustible materials wi

43、thin anenclosure.3.2.5.1 DiscussionFlashover occurs when the surfacetemperatures of combustible contents rise, producing pyrolysisgases, and the room heat flux becomes sufficient to heat allsuch gases to their ignition temperatures. This commonlyoccurs when the upper layer temperature reaches 600C o

44、r aradiant heat flux at the floor of at least 20 kW/m2.3.2.6 heat release rate, ncalorific energy released per unittime by the combustion of a material under specified testconditions.3.2.7 smoke, nairborne solid and liquid particulates andgases evolved when a material undergoes pyrolysis and com-bus

45、tion.3.2.8 smoke toxicity, npropensity of smoke to produceadverse biochemical or physiological effects.3.2.9 toxic potency (as applied to inhalation of smoke or itscomponent gases), nquantitative expression relating concen-tration and exposure time to a particular degree of adversephysiological resp

46、onse, for example, death, on exposure ofhumans or animals.3.2.9.1 DiscussionThe toxic potency of the smoke fromany material, product, or assembly is related to the compositionof that smoke which, in turn, is dependent upon the conditionsunder which the smoke is generated.3.2.10 upholstered furniture

47、, nunit of interior furnishingthat (1) contains any surface that is covered, in whole or in part,with a fabric or other upholstery cover material, (2) containsupholstery padding or filling materials, and (3) is intended forsitting or reclining upon.3.2.11 upholstery cover fabric, noutermost layer of

48、 fabricor other material used to enclose the main support system orupholstery padding, or both, used in the furniture item.3.2.12 upholstery padding, npadding, stuffing, or fillingmaterials used in a furniture item, which may be either loose orattached, enclosed by an upholstery fabric, or located b

49、etweenthe upholstery fabric and support system, if present.3.2.12.1 DiscussionThis includes, but is not limited to,materials such as foams, cotton batting, polyester fiberfill,bonded cellulose or down.4. Summary of Guide4.1 The test methods identified in this guide can be subdi-vided in four groups, namely: (1) generic small-scale methods;(2) specific applications of small-scale test methods applied toparticular products or composites of products, associated withupholstery items; (3) real-scale test methods where actualupholstery products (or full-scale mock-ups)
