What Is a Combustion Testing Service?
A combustion testing service is used to evaluate the flame resistance of fabrics and plastic materials.
In the case of fabrics, the sample is tilted at a 45-degree angle, and a flame is applied from below to measure the spread of combustion (combustion area and length). The time the flame remains (residual flame time) and the time it takes for the flame to burn out (residual dust time) are also measured.
In the case of plastic materials, the test specimens are brought into contact with a specified flame and evaluated according to the length of the combustion and the presence or absence of droplets. This is a test that requires a lot of labor in preparation and execution of the test.
