| Résumé : |
Various testing methods have been explored for the evaluation of the flame resistance of leather, but much further investigation is steel needed. Preliminary historical and descriptive background for the two primary flame-resistance test methods on leathers treated with various flame-retardant chemicals. First the test methods must be addressed in terms of their advantages and limitations.
Flame/glow retardance depends upon the disruption of the burning process. Four general mechanisms (thermal, coating, gas, chemical) have been proposed to explain the means by which chemicals retard flaming. The flammability of leather must be tested in order to demonstrate compliance with governing regulation in automobile, aircraft and upholstery applications as well as to show the consumer that leather is safe. The two major test methods chosen for this application are the vertical-flame test and the oxygen-index test. The oxygen-index-test method has been developed to minimize operator variation, and to make possible more reliable comparisons of test data from other sources and even comparisons against other materials.
