Standard Test Method for Flame Resistance of Leather (12/60 Second Vertical Burn Test)

Importancia y uso:

5.1 This test method determines the response of leather to a standard ignition source, deriving measurement values for afterflame time, afterglow time, and char length.

5.2 The vertical flame resistance, as determined by this test method, only relates to a specified flame exposure and application time.

5.3 This test method maintains the specimen in a static, draft-free, vertical position and does not involve movement except that resulting from the exposure.

5.4 Test Method D8608 has been adopted from Federal Test Standard No. 191A method 5903.1 and the ALCA E50, which has been used for many years in acceptance testing. The between-laboratory precision of this test method has not been established.
