FIRE RETARDANT TEST RESULTS.docx
BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF TEST: The hardware items are placed in an oven, stabilized at 500°F +10/-0°F. After a period of 5 +0.15/-0 minutes, the oven door is opened and the specimens are observed to determine any sign of melt, drip, separation or ignition. The specimens are then evaluated as to their functionality within...

fire retardant - Akrochem Corporation
weight, solid Akrochlor R-70 resin can be used at 25-30 phr in EPDM. Make sure R-70 is melted during mixing (220°F minimum). Mill-mixing R-70 sometimes results in molding flaws and poorer flame resistance. In general, good dispersion of the flame retarders is essential. Imagine two identical compounds, one with finely...
Fire-resistance rating - Wikipedia
A fire-resistance rating typically means the duration for which a passive fire protection system can withstand a standard fire resistance test. This can be quantified simply as a measure of time, or it may entail a host of other criteria, involving other evidence of functionality or fitness for purpose.
Testing and Selection of Fire-Resistant Materials for Spacecraft Use
