Excerpt from Furniture Flammability, Vol. 3: An Investigation of the California Technical Bulletin 133 Test, Full Scale Chair BurnsFurniture manufacturers, suppliers to the furniture industry, and representative associations of the furniture industry were surveyed prior to the selection of the materials. This was done in order to determine representative material combinations. This study however, does not include blends of fabrics wool nylon which represent a large percentage of the fabrics utilized in the contract furnishings market. The ¿ammability characteristics of blended fibers and fabrics are much more complex and not within the scope of this work. The intent of this study was to assess the technical merits of TB 133, not to evaluate the state of the art in ¿ame retardant upholstered materials.The material combinations tested in the full-scale upholstered furniture tests were based upon the use of two foam types, a fiberglass interliner, and four fabrics. The foams investigated were melamine-treated polyurethane foam and a polyurethane foam that had passed the California Bulletin 117 test. The four fabrics were nylon, polyolefin, a fire retardant polyvinylchloride, and wool.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
