GB 8410 – 2006: Flammability of Automotive Interior Materials

This Standard specifies the technical requirements and test methods for the horizontal flammability of automotive interior materials.

This Standard applies to the assessment of automotive interior materials.

As automotive interior parts (positions, layout and application conditions of the parts, ignition sources, etc.) differ considerably from the test conditions specified in this Standard, this Standard does not apply to the assessment of all the actual flammability of automotive interior materials.

The flammability of interior materials must meet the following technical requirement:

The burning rate is not greater than 100 mm/min.

Fit the sample horizontally on a U-shaped support then ignite the free end of the sample on a flame of the specified height in the combustion box. 15 seconds later, determine whether the flame on the sample goes out or at what time it goes out, the burnt distance of the sample, and the time used in burning this distance.

The burning rate (V) shall be calculated from the following formula

V=60× (L/T)

Where,

V = burning rate, in mm/min

L = burnt distance, in mm

T = time taken to burn L, in seconds
