Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Furniture Flammability, Vol. 3: An Investigation of the California Technical Bulletin 133 Test; Full Scale Chair Burns Furniture manufacturers, suppliers to the furniture industry, and representative associations of the furniture industry were surveyed prior to the selection of the materials. This was done in order to determine representative material combinations. This study however, does not include blends of fabrics wool nylon which represent a large percentage of the fabrics utilized in the contract furnishings market. The flammability characteristics of blended fibers and fabrics are much more complex and not within the scope of this work. The intent of this study was to assess the technical merits of TB 133, not to evaluate the state of the art in flame retardant upholstered materials. The material combinations tested in the full-scale upholstered furniture tests were based upon the use of two foam types, a fiberglass interliner, and four fabrics. The foams investigated were melamine-treated polyurethane foam and a polyurethane foam that had passed the California Bulletin 117 test. The four fabrics were nylon, polyolefin, a fire retardant polyvinylchloride, and wool. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2018-01-12 with total page 36 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Furniture Flammability, an Investigation of the California Technical Bulletin 133 Test, Vol. 1: Measuring the Hazards of Furniture Fires In Fiscal Year 1989 the Congress requested a study on ignition of upholstered furniture. The desire was to provide a sound technical basis for a test method to measure the fire hazard of upholstered furniture subject to flaming ignition. This need was prompted by the increasing concern for fire safety in public occupancies and the development and interest in the use of California Technical Bulletin 133 [171. The short range objectives of this study are reported in a three part series listed below: Furniture Flammability: An Investigation of the California Technical Bulletin 133 Test.

This book was released on 2008-12-05 with total page 447 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The flammability of upholstered furniture is a major concern to engineers and others across a wide swath of organizations. This book was written to provide its audience with the science and engineering needed to better understand the combustibility of the products they manufacture, purchase, and try to extinguish. It addresses the science and engineering information needs of public and private sector fire technology personnel, including fire service students and officers, fire investigators, fire protection engineers, government officials; textile, chemical, and furniture industry personnel, or institutional furniture purchasers.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: FROM THE INTRODUCTION "Considerable effort has gone into the study of various aspects of flammability and of various plastic materials, so that these materials which are proving so useful to man will always be used in ways which will not compromise his safety. The task is a continuing one, because the family of plastics continues to grow, and, along with it, its variety of applications. Some of these future applications cannot even be conceived of at the present time. The needs of man and his society are changing, and with them the factors that affect his safety, comfort, and convenience. A flammability handbook for plastics must necessarily involve a variety of sciences and technologies spread across the whole spectrum of human knowledge, and it is impossible to discuss all the subjects in great depth. Any details extracted for attention are brought because they are believed to be significant to the overall effort to make plastics as useful and safe as humanly possible."

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Furniture Flammability, Vol. 2: An Investigation of the California Bulletin 133 Test; Characterization of the Ignition Source and a Comparable Gas Burner It is worth noting that the use of inert mock-ups for the characterization of the CB 133 source removes one element of variability. When the newsprint has begun to ignite a combustible substrate, energy feedback from the new flames (mainly radiation) can accelerate the newsprint burning process. This effectcan be expected to vary with the nature of the substrate. When the substrate is inert it is minimized.

Download or read book Flame Retardant Polymeric Materials written by Menachem Lewin and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Flammability has been recognized as an increasingly important social and scientific problem. Fire statistics in the United States (Report on the National Commission on Fire Prevention and Control, "America Burning," 1973) emphasized the vast devastation to life and property-12,000 lives lost annually due to fire and these deaths are usually caused by inhaling smoke or toxic gases; 300,000 fire injuries; 11. 4 billion dollars in fire cost of which 2. 7 billion dollars is related to property loss; a billion dollars to burn injury treatment; and 3. 3 billion dollars in productivity loss. It is obvious that much human and economic misery can be attributed to fire situations. In relation to this, polymer flammability has been recognized as an increasingly important social and scientific problem. The development of flame-retardant polymeric materials is a current example where the initiative for major scientific and technological developments is motivated by sociological pressure and legisla tion. This is part of the important trend toward a safer environment and sets a pattern for future example. Flame retardancy deals with our basic everyday life situations-housing, work areas, transportation, clothing and so forth the "macroenvironment" capsule within which "homosapiens" live. As a result, flame-retardant polymers are now emerging as a specific class of materials leading to new and diversified scientific and technological ventures.
