How we did candle test for danger

This results in reduced flame spread and smoke generation.

Fire retardant additives

Additionally, small-scale test data can be used to estimate material pyrolysis and combustion properties for use as input in models with flame spread capabilities.

He says that the higher desired density of 20 pcf translated into more fuel in the E84 burn test, creating technical hurdles as far as retarding smoke generation and flame spread. "But through our extensive technical expertise, we were able to overcome this challenge, resulting in a novel product that has utility beyond its original application." www.bayone.com.

The flame spread behavior of nylon 6 and nanocomposites as very thin films (~0.5-mm thickness) was investigated using horizontal flame spread test [24].

Condensed-phase flame retardation in nylon 6-layered silicate nanocomposites: films, fibers, and fabrics

These cables meet stringent NFPA tests for flame spread and smoke for improved fire safety performance.

Flexible plenum cables

Instead of adding chemicals, the fabric is incorporated as an extra layer of protection during the manufacturing process, acting as a shield against flame spread and penetration.

Best results in pentane-blown foams were obtained with Saytex RB-7001, which gave a flame spread of 29.4 and smoke density of 415.

Polyurethanes: foams go 'green' at ever-lower cost: a great deal of effort is going into formulating rigid and flexible foams for lower cost and better properties, despite the transition to "cleaner" blowing agents. Improving fire and smoke performance is another challenge

Prior to the code approval of the use of low smoke and low flame spread cable in the return-air-plenum spaces, all cables had to be placed in metal conduit.
