    Notes: Different types of floor coverings were tested using three different methods: the Cone Calorimeter (ISO 5660), the Nordtest floor covering test NT FIRE 007 and the German Radiant Panel Method (DIN 4102 Teil 14). The results of the comparisons between both flame spread and smoke production are given. Some correlation is found between the results of the Cone Calorimeter and the NT FIRE 007. Between other methods, no correlations seem to exist.

    Notes: External radiation in enclosure fires can significantly enhance flame spread and fire growth. One of the effects of external radiation is to increase the mass loss rate of the fuel, which in turn produces larger flames. In this work, a measurement of mass loss with and without applied radiation was made as a function of time for three types of materials: a plastic (polymethylmethacrylate), wood-based products (particle board and hardboard), and a paper-based product (cardboard). The levels of applied radiation ranged from 0 to nearly 12 kWm-2. The purpose of the investigation was to (1) quantitatively determine the effect of external radiation on the mass loss of various materials,(2) measure various parameters which may be used to characterize the mass loss rate history of the materials and (3) determine a method for expressing the mass loss rate as a function of time for input into numerical models. Higher levels of external radiation resulted in higher peak mass loss rates and quicker consumption of the material. Quantities which are useful for ranking the flammability of materials have been measured for the samples tested and are tabulated.

    Notes: A new Intermediate Scale Heat Release Rate Test Method is being developed primarily for testing assemblies in the vertical mode. Using the oxygen consumption calorimetry methodology and exhaust collection systems that already exist in many laboratories in the US and around the world, the apparatus is very economical to install. The sample size lends itself to reptitive testing in a short period of time. Sample preparation is generally quick and easy. Further development of the method should progress now that the method has been introduced at ASTM and will be introduced formally into ISO in the near future. There has been a favorable response by several laboratories who are considering construction of the apparatus. Additional assemblies tests are already underway and additional data will be presented in the near future.

    Notes: In the study of smoke suppressants the measurement of gross amount of smoke from a given sample is essential. However, smoke being a complex phenomenon, its measurement with optical methods presents practical problems. The paper describes a flow system for the measurement of smoke production. Effectiveness of smoke-suppressant formulations for poly(vinyl chloride) as assessed in a flow system is reported. Results of experiments conducted to probe and establish the capability of smoke measurement in a flow system using a helium-neon laser are discussed.

    Notes: This paper extends previously reported work 1,2 and describes the influence that a range of selected flame retardants have on the burning behaviour and pyrolyses of homo-and copolymers of acrylonitrile. Various inorganic and organic phosphorus and nitrogen- or sulphur-containing, halogen-containing (in the absence and presence of halogen or antimony (III) oxide) and nitrogen-containing flame retardants and red phosphorus were studied using LOI, TGA, DSC and residual char measuring techniques. Flame retardancy relates directly to char-forming tendency for all retardants and their ability to reduce the dominance of flammable volatiles formed during the first stage of acrylic polymer pyrolysis. Ammonium phosphates are particularly effective flame retardants for the selected copolymers. Possible mechanisms of retardant activity are discussed, including the char-forming tendency of antimony-bromine combiniations.

    Notes: Three small-scale flammability tests were evaluated for potential use in quality control. The small-scale flame test produced excessive scatter of data, the hot-plate ignition test gave reasonably reproducible data, but the critical oxygen index yielded superior results and is recommended for quality control testing.

    Notes: The fire-retardant effectiveness of mixtures of hexabromocyclododecane (HBCD) and artimony oxide (Sb2O3) in polyethylene (PE) was examined utilizing differential thermal analysis (DTA), gas chromatography/mass spectroscopy (GC/MS) and limited oxygen index (LOI) techniques. It was determined that the normal practice of mixing Sb2O3 with HBCD induced a synergistic chemical reaction at 250°C whose main product, SbBr3, was responsible for enhanced fire retardancy. The mixing of SbBr3 directly into the PE produces a superior fire-retardant polyethylene.
