Key result

Test procedure:

burning time (test type not further specified)

Remarks:

or specified in description of method (migrated information)

Remarks on result:

other: The test item melts but does not burn after applying the flame of the burner.

After having applied the flame of the burner, the test item melted but did not ignite. Application time of the ignition source was 30 s, 60 s and 120 s. For all tested time regimes, the result was negative and interpreted as such that ACSplus is non flammable.

Conclusions:

The test item is not highly flammable in accordance with A.10 criteria.

Executive summary:
