UL94 horizontal burning test for classifying materials HB

The horizontal burning test evaluates the burning rate of a specimen in mm/min taking into account its thickness.

Specimen:Two sets of three specimens with nominal dimensions 125 mm x13 mm and thickness not more than 13mm.

Specimen conditioning:Condition the specimens at 230C and relative humidity 50% for minimum of 48 hours.

Gas flow:将甲烷气流设置为105 mL/min。调整燃烧器的流量和进气口,以使蓝色的蓝火焰高20mm。

Flame application:20毫米本生灯火焰

Flame application time:30 seconds. If the flame front reaches the first 25mm mark within 30 seconds the flame application is discontinued.

Measurements:

A – Whether the flame passed the 25mm mark.

B – Whether the flame passed the 100mm mark.

C – The elapsed time between 25mm and 100mm mark, if the flame passed the 100mm mark.

L – The damaged length between the 25mm and 100 mm mark.

V – The calculated liner burning rate in mm/min.
