Melting behavior of fusible materials according to UN/ECE Regulation No. 118, Annex 7
The melting behavior of fusible materials used in certain motor vehicles must be determined according to Annex 7 of UN/ECE Regulation 118.
In the test, it is monitored whether the specimen ignites, creates flaming droplets, and if these droplets ignite cotton wool placed under the specimen. For the material to pass the test, there must be no formation of flaming drops that ignite the cotton wool.
Measurlabs can offer accredited test reports for the UN/ECE R118 Annex 7 test, as well as the Annex 6 and Annex 8 tests.
Non-isotropic materials must be tested from both sides, which means that double the number of samples is required.
- Suitable sample matrices
- Fusible materials and products used in vehicles and buses
- Required sample quantity
- 5 samples with dimensions 70x70 mm and thickness up to 13 mm. Double the number of samples is required if the material is non-isotropic.
- Typical turnaround time
- 3 weeks after receiving the samples
- Available quality systems
- Accredited test method
- Standard
- Method expert
