ECSS-Q-70-21A, SPACE PRODUCT ASSURANCE, FLAMMABILITY TESTING FOR THE SCREENING OF SPACE MATERIALS (4 OCT 1999)

ECSS-Q-70-21A, SPACE PRODUCT ASSURANCE, FLAMMABILITY TESTING FOR THE SCREENING OF SPACE MATERIALS (4 OCT 1999). This Standard defines a multi-test procedure for the determination of the flammability characteristics of non-metallic materials under a set of closely controlled conditions. The test procedure covers both individual materials and materials used in configuration. This Standard describes a series of tests to provide data for aid in the evaluation of the suitability of materials for use in a space vehicle crew compartment.The data obtained are in respect to the ease of ignition and the flame propagation characteristics of materials.
