NASA-STD-(I)-6001A, NASA TECHNICAL STANDARD (INTERIM), FLAMMABILITY, OFFGASSING, AND COMPATIBILITY REQUIREMENTS AND TEST PROCEDURES (21 APR 2009)
NASA-STD-(I)-6001A, NASA TECHNICAL STANDARD (INTERIM), FLAMMABILITY, OFFGASSING, AND COMPATIBILITY REQUIREMENTS AND TEST PROCEDURES (21 APR 2009)., This Interim Technical Standard is published by the National Aeronautics and Space
Administration (NASA) to provide uniform engineering and technical requirements for
processes, procedures, practices, and methods to meet urgent program and project technical
needs. This interim standard has the consensus of the developing Technical Working Group
but does not have Agencywide concurrence required for a NASA technical standard.
This interim standard may be cited in contract, program, and other Agency documents as a
technical requirement.
This document establishes requirements for evaluation, testing, and selection of materials
that are intended for use in space vehicles, associated Ground Support Equipment (GSE),
and facilities used during assembly, test, and flight operations. Included are requirements,
criteria, and test methods for evaluating the flammability, offgassing, and compatibility of
materials. Provisions of this standard will be included, as applicable, in all future
contracts and programs involving space vehicles, payloads, and associated support
equipment. NASA-STD-6001 was previously published as NHB 8060.1, Flammability,
Odor, Offgassing, and Compatibility Requirements and Test Procedures for Materials in
Environments that Support Combustion.
