There are several other flammability standards that apply to specific types of products to reduce the risk of fires caused by flammable materials. Some of the most common flammability standards are:
Children's Sleepwear Standard (16 CFR Part 1615/1616): This standard applies to all children's sleepwear sizes 0-14 and establishes flammability requirements for these products. The standard limits the rate at which the fabric can burn and requires that the fabric self-extinguish within a certain time frame.
Upholstered Furniture Standard (California Technical Bulletin 117): This standard applies to upholstered furniture sold in California and is widely used across the United States. The standard requires that upholstered furniture meet specific flammability requirements, such as being able to withstand an open flame for a certain amount of time and not emitting toxic fumes during combustion.
Mattress Standard (16 CFR Part 1632/1633): This standard establishes flammability requirements for mattresses sold in the United States. The standard sets limits on the rate at which a mattress can burn and requires that it self-extinguish within a certain time frame.
Tent Standard (CPAI-84): This standard applies to tents sold in the United States and sets flammability requirements for the tent's fabric and other materials. The standard limits the rate at which the tent fabric can burn and requires that it self-extinguish within a certain time frame.
Aviation Standard(FAR 25.853): This standard applies to materials used in aircraft interiors and establishes flammability requirements to ensure the safety of passengers and crew in the event of a fire. The standard sets limits on the rate at which materials can burn and requires that they self-extinguish within a certain time frame.
Overall, these flammability standards help to ensure the safety of consumers by setting minimum performance requirements for the flammability of specific products. By complying with these standards, manufacturers can help to reduce the risk of injury or death from fires caused by flammable materials.
