Test Procedure of Vertical Flammability Tester

Vertical Flammability Chamber for measuring the vertical flame spread for children’ sleepwear, fabrics, other textile materials or resilient filling materials used in upholstered furniture. Comprises a draft free stainless steel cabinet with observation window and back wall painted black for easy test viewing. This tester is used to detect children's pajamas or decorative fabrics, combustion performance of foam, also it’s suitable for the determination of aviation and transport materials, burning resistance of the tents and protective clothing.


Open the test chamber door and hang the sample holder together with the specimen in the test chamber.Close the door, then the power indicator light should be bright, according to the ignition switch, lit the ignition device, to be 30s flame stability, press the start switch, so that the ignition is moved to the sample below, lit the sample. At this point from the sample from the sealed container to take out the time must be within lmin.12s, the ignition back to the original, continued to start the chronograph timer, to be continued to stop, immediately press the timer to stop the switch, the flame retardant timer began to wait until the flame stop, press the timer to stop the switch. Read the burning time and flame retardant time, the reading should be accurate to 0.1 s.


When testing the fabric made of fusible fiber, if the test sample is produced in the process of burning droplets, should be in the bottom of the box at the bottom of 10mm thick cotton. Note whether the melt off is caused by the burning or flame retardant of the absorbent cotton and recorded. Open the front door of the test chamber, remove the sample holder, remove the sample, first along the length of the carbonization of the direction of the fold, and then on the side of the specimen side, from its bottom and side about 6mm, The weight of the unit area of the weight of the selection of heavy hammer, and then slowly lift the sample at the bottom of the other side, so that the hammer floating, and then down, measuring the length of the tear tear, that is, the length of damage, the results accurate to 1mm The Remove the debris from the chamber and vent the ventilation equipment, remove the smoke and gas from the test chamber, and then test the next sample.

Classfication Of The Textile Testing

Textile testing is the term for a whole series of tests that examine the physical, mechanical and chemical properties of textiles. These tests are sometimes done before a textile goes into widespread use, or they're done on textiles arriving from other countries for sale in US markets. Countries like the United States have established standards for what should and should not be in textile products. Tests can show whether companies making textiles are in compliance or not. Many textile tests have many types. Some of them are physical tests, in which a sample of textile material is examined closely for feel and appearance. Such tests are done on individual fibers or strands of material and on yarns, threads made of several fibers twisted together. Textiles are subjected to light and other elements to see how they react. Some of these tests are done in a weather-ometer, a machine that tests for weathering and lightfastness of textiles. It's basically an enclosed box. Textiles...

How To Process The Elmendorf Tear Strength Test

The Elmendorf tear tester has been developed specially for the paper industry and is outstanding for simplicity of operation and high measurement accuracy. The exchangeable pendulum is equipped with a pneumatic sample clamp. The initiation and return of the pendulum, as well as sample cutting is completely automatic. The device is operated via an integrated touch screen, where the test method can be selected, specific settings can be adjusted, and, after the measurement, results and statistics can be  displayed.Each pendulum is supplied with the appropriate control weight so that, with the help of the service program, it can easily be checked for functionality and balance. The Elmendorf tear test Procedure:     Cotton fabric was taken.     Warp and weft direction of the fabric was identified.     Two strips were cut from the fabric in both directions having dimensions of 100 x 63.5 mm.     The sample was then fixed in the jaws of the ...

Standard Procedure Of Oxygen Index Test Methods

Oxygen index tester test methods, which describes the tendency of a material to sustain a flame, are widely used as a tool to investigate the flammability of polymers. They provide a convenient, reproducible, means of determining a numerical measure of flammability. A further attraction is that the test method uses inexpensive equipment and only requires a small sample size. These methods have been used to systematical investigate the relative flammabilities of fire-retarded materials, frequently comparing the effectiveness of fire-retardants and fire-retardancy mechanisms. The quintessential feature of oxygen-index methods is that the sample is burnt within a controlled atmosphere. The standard procedure is to ignite the top of the sample, using a gas flame which is withdrawn once ignition has occurred, and to find the lowest oxygen concentration in an upward flowing mixture of nitrogen and oxygen which just supports sustained burning. The criticality criterion typically tak...
