Standard Practice for Calculation of Hazard Potential Figures of Merit for Thermally Unstable Materials

Importancia y uso:

5.1 This practice provides nine figures of merit which may be used to estimate the relative thermal hazard of thermally unstable materials. Since numerous assumptions must be made in order to obtain these figures of merit, care must be exercised to avoid too rigorous interpretation (or even misapplication) of the results.

5.2 This practice may be used for comparative purposes, specification acceptance, and research. It should not be used to predict actual performance.
