Characteristics
- Flame retardantUL 94 rating of V-0, V-1 or V-2 — stops burning on its own once the flame is removed.
Certifications
- UL 94 V-0 (3 mm)Flammability rating from the UL 94 test. V-0 is the highest common rating: the flame goes out within 10 seconds with no burning drips.
- FAR 25.853 Appendix F Part I (a)(1)(ii) 12 s vertical burnMeets the US aviation flammability requirement (FAR 25.853) for materials used inside aircraft cabins.
- ASTM E662
- BSS 7239
