Importance of combustion performance testing of automotive interior materials

Immediately the weather gradually heats up, and this scene occasionally occurs on the highway, that is, the car spontaneously ignites. Why does the car catch fire? The main reason is that the daily maintenance of the car is not in place, the electrical components in the car are aging, and the car is modified privately. Nowadays, many automotive interior materials generally do not have fire resistance, so it is of very important practical significance to test the combustion performance of automotive interiors.  The combustion characteristic is one of the important characteristic indexes of automotive interior materials. The performance of automotive interior materials is most closely related to the occupants. In order to avoid or delay the expansion of combustion, so that the occupants can have a certain time to safely leave the car that may be about to fire, the combustion characteristics test of the interior materials is in a specially designed combustion Carried out in the box. In the interior design of a car, some flammable substances are in contact with the human body in many parts, such as seats, car carpets, and airbags. When the interior materials of these parts are on fire, they will directly contact the human body and cause serious harm to the human body. Some parts of the car, such as battery separators, car engine linings, etc., these textiles are close to the car's engine, and when the car's engine fails, it is easy to cause fires and cause the entire car to catch fire and cause losses. In view of the above characteristics, people have done a lot of research on the flame retardant of automotive interior materials. For example, Japan’s Maeda Yumoto introduced the hydrolysis-resistant polylactic acid fiber mixed with natural fiber, and then heat-processed and compressed to form durable automobile parts.   Domestic and foreign and major automobile manufacturers have formulated strict regulations on the combustion characteristics of automotive interior materials. my country formulated the corresponding standard GB8410-87 in 1987, and revised the standard in 1994 to form GB8410-1994. This standard is a national mandatory standard and is currently one of more than 40 mandatory standards implemented by the automotive industry in my country. One.  According to the experience of developed countries, my country's automotive interior materials must take the road of certification, which is also the inevitable trend of my country's automotive product management. Standard Group (Hong Kong) Co., Ltd. specializes in providing GB8410 automotive interior material flame retardant performance tester.
