FIRE PROPERTIES OF MATERIALSX1.1 Subsection 5.2.1.1When a product consisting ofnoncombustible materials also contains adhesives, binders, orresins, the product should not be considered inherently non-combustible (for example, composite
34、materials or insulationproducts with plastic or paper facings). In these cases, thematerial should be further evaluated to determine if it isnoncombustible, fire retardant, or in some other category, asappropriate.X1.2 Subsection 5.2.1.2A coating or treatment that ren-ders a material resistant to fi
35、re. The measure of this depends onthe type of material (that is, fabric, plastic, or wood), the testmethod, or manufacturers requirements, or a combinationthereof. In order to render combustible materials as “fireretardant” or “flame retardant,” they will typically be treatedwith a fire retardant ad
36、ditive during manufacture or molding (inthe case of plastics, for example). The ultimate fire propertiesof treated materials depend on many factors, including theamount of fire retardant added, the properties of the basematerial, the shape, size, surface area, thickness, and volume ofcombustible mat
37、erials.X1.3 Table 1There are many existing standards that maybe applicable to characterize fire properties of materials speci-fied for vehicles associated with amusement rides and devices.When the user desires to use an equivalent standard to thatlisted in Table 1, diligence must be applied to revie
38、w themethod to ensure the appropriate material characteristics areassessed. Standards associated with transit systems (forexample, NFPA 130) or other ASTM standards (for example,Test Method E162, Test Method E662) may be appropriatealternatives to those listed. Existing building standards (forexampl
39、e, Test Method E84, TB-116, DIN 4102, etc.) and testmethods are typically focused on building components (forexample, wall linings, building materials, etc.). These methodsmay be applicable but can be onerous when applied due to therequirement for large sample sizes.X1.4 Subsection 5.4:X1.4.1 The te
40、st methods referenced in this section should beused to evaluate materials that are not explicitly listed in thestandard. The application of these test methods to products thathave a proven service history can provide guidance to establishappropriate thresholds when adding new materials to thisstanda
41、rd.X1.4.2 Specimens configured to substantially reflect theend-use configuration means that the samples should be testedin approximately the same spatial orientation (for example,horizontal, vertical), and composition (for example, all com-ponents used including core or paint, or both). The specimen
42、smay need to account for alterations or repairs made to thevehicle over its service life to reflect an “as installed” condi-tion.ASTM International takes no position respecting the validity of any patent rights asserted in connection with any item mentionedin this standard.
