[Current]Textile fabrics — Determination of burning behaviour, Part 3: Determination of surface burning time
Specifies a method for the measurement of surface burning properties of textile fabrics which have raised fibre surface, i.e. napped, pile, tufted, flocked or similar surface. The surface of the test specimen is ignited near the top by a small heat source and the spread of flame downwards on the surface of the fabric to a reference line is timed.
