Title
Standard Test Method for Fire Retardancy of Paints (Cabinet Method)
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Oct 10, 1998
Scope:
This test method determines quantitatively the fire retardant
properties of a coating or coating
system on a wood surface and the leaching effect of water on the fire
retardancy of the coating or
coating system. Specifically, this test method determines the weight
loss and char index of coated
panels subjected to a flame and the effect of leaching of the coating
on these parameters.
This test method should be used solely to measure and describe the
properties of materials,
products, or systems in response to heat and flame under controlled
laboratory conditions and
should not be considered or used for the description, appraisal, or
regulation of the fire hazard
of materials, products, or systems under actual fire conditions.
The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as the standard. The
values given in parentheses
are for information only.
This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns,
if any, associated with its
use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to
establish appropriate safety and
health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory
limitations prior to use.
