Determination of Combustible Content: A Method Description Based on Established Practice

摘要

The combustibility of building products such as mineral wool and fiber reinforced inorganic boards is determined according to ISO Non-Combustibility Test (ISO 1182). However, for quality control purposes a simple determination of the amount of combustible constituents is often performed. The product is then subjected to a temperature high enough to burn off the organic material and the amount of combustibles is expressed as percentage weight loss. The project has the objective of proposing a Nordtest method. The method description is reported separately. To verify the proposed test method a test series was performed.
