Textile fabrics - Burning behaviour - Determination of ease of ignition of vertically oriented specimens (ISO 6940:2004)

ISO 6940:2004 specifies a method for the measurement of ease of ignition of vertically oriented textile fabrics and industrial products in the form of single or multi-component fabrics (coated, quilted, multilayered, sandwich constructions, and similar combinations), when subjected to a small, defined flame. This method assesses the properties of textile fabrics in response to flame contact under controlled conditions.

Textilien - Brennverhalten - Bestimmung der Entzündbarkeit vertikal angeordneter Proben (ISO 6940:2004)

Diese Internationale Norm legt ein Verfahren zur Messung der Entzündbarkeit von vertikal angeordneten textilen Flächengebilden und industriellen Erzeugnissen, in Form von Einzel- oder Verbundtextilien (beschichtet, gesteppt, mehrlagig, Verbundkonstruktionen und ähnliche Kombinationen) fest, die einer kleinen definierten Flamme ausgesetzt werden.
Mit Hilfe dieses Verfahrens werden die Eigenschaften von textilen Flächengebilden hinsichtlich ihrer Reaktion auf Flammeneinwirkung unter kontrollierten Bedingungen eingeschätzt. Die Ergebnisse erlauben keine Rückschlüsse auf Situationen, in denen der Luftzutritt beschränkt ist oder das Material der Einwirkung großer und intensiver Wärmequellen ausgesetzt ist.
Mit diesem Verfahren kann der Einfluss von Nähten auf das Verhalten der Erzeugnisse bestimmt werden, indem die Messprobe so angeordnet wird, dass die Naht der Prüfflamme ausgesetzt wird. Wann immer es zweckmäßig ist, sollten Besatzartikel als Teile der Kombination von Flächengebilden geprüft werden, in der sie verwendet werden oder werden sollen.

Textiles - Comportement au feu - Détermination de la facilité d'allumage d'éprouvettes orientées verticalement (ISO 6940:2004)

L'ISO 6940:2004 spécifie une méthode permettant de mesurer la facilité d'allumage des étoffes et produits industriels orientés verticalement par rapport à une flamme définie de petite taille; il peut s'agir d'étoffes simples ou complexes (textiles enduits, ouatés, multicouches, en sandwich et autres structures similaires). Cette méthode permet d'évaluer les propriétés des étoffes en réaction à un contact avec la flamme dans des conditions contrôlées
