Title
Standard Test Method for Flammability of Marine Surface Finishes
ASTM International
Publication Date:
Sep 1, 2008
Scope:
This fire-test-response standard covers a procedure for
measuring fire properties associated with flammable behavior of
surface finishes used on noncombustible substrates aboard ship
(Note 1). In particular, these include surface finishes intended
for use in ship construction such as deck surfacing materials,
bulkhead and ceiling veneers including any adhesives used to fasten
the veneers to the bulkheads and ceilings, paints, and exposed
treatment of insulating materials.
NOTE 1—This test method has been prepared to closely follow the
test procedure of IMO Resolution A.653(16) (1).2
Optional provisions not applicable to the domestic use of this test
method have been deleted.
Tests performed according to this test method are intended to
yield fire properties that, when appropriately interpreted, are
potentially useful to select materials and surface treatments that
will limit the rapid growth and spread of fire.
This test method requires a specific range of specimen radiant
thermal exposure for measuring fire properties.
The values stated in SI units are to be regarded as standard. No
other units of measurement are included in this standard.
This standard is used to measure and describe the response
of materials, products, or assemblies to heat and flame under
controlled conditions, but does not by itself incorporate all
factors required for fire hazard or fire risk assessment of the
materials, products, or assemblies under actual fire
conditions.
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. For specific hazard statements, see
Section 7.
2 The boldface numbers in parentheses refer to a list
of references at the end of this standard.
