Test for sustained combustibility of liquids (ISO 9038:2002)

Many national and international regulations classify liquids as presenting a flammable hazard on the basis of their flash point, as determined by a recognized method. Some of these regulations allow a derogation if the substance cannot "sustain combustion" at some specified temperature or temperatures. This International Standard specifies a pass/fail procedure to determine whether or not a liquid product, that would be classified as "flammable" by virtue of its flash point, has the ability to sustain combustion at the temperature or temperatures specified in the appropriate regulations.
The procedure is applicable to paints (including water-borne paints), varnishes, paint binders, solvents, petroleum or related products and adhesives, which have a flash point. It is not applicable to painted surfaces in respect of assessing their potential fire hazards.

Prüfung der Weiterbrennbarkeit von Flüssigkeiten (ISO: 9038:2002)

In vielen nationalen und internationalen Vorschriften wird die Entzündungsgefahr von Flüssigkeiten nach ihrem mit einem anerkannten Verfahren bestimmten Flammpunkt klassifiziert. Einige dieser Vorschriften lassen eine Erniedrigung der Gefahrenstufe zu, wenn die Flüssigkeit bei einer bestimmten Temperatur oder bei bestimmten Temperaturen nicht weiterbrennt. Diese Internationale Norm legt ein Ja/nein-Verfahren fest, mit dem bestimmt wird, ob ein flüssiges Produkt, das auf Grund seines Flammpunktes als "entzündlich" eingestuft würde, bei der/den in den betreffenden Vorschriften angegebenen Temperatur/en selbstunterhaltend weiterbrennen kann oder nicht.
ANMERKUNG 1   In den Empfehlungen der Vereinten Nationen zum Transport von gefährlichen Gütern sind Temperaturen von 60,5 °C bis 75,0 °C festgelegt.
Das Verfahren ist anwendbar bei Gemischen wie Beschichtungsstoffe (einschließlich wasserverdünnbarer Beschichtungsstoffe), Lackbindemittel, Lösemittel, Mineralöl- oder ähnliche Produkte, die einen Flammpunkt haben. Es ist nicht anwendbar zum Beurteilen der Feuergefährlichkeit von flüssigen Beschichtungen.
ANMERKUNG 2   Dieses Prüfverfahren für das Weiterbrennen kann zusätzlich zum Prüfverfahren für den Flammpunkt zum Beurteilen der Feuergefährlichkeit eines Produktes eingesetzt werden. Besondere Vorsicht ist beim Übertragen von Ergebnissen aus Versuchen im Labor auf Verhältnisse in der Praxis geboten, da sich große Mengen von Flüssigkeiten anders verhalten können als kleine Proben.

Essai de combustion entretenue de liquides (ISO 9038:2002)

De nombreux règlements nationaux et internationaux classent les liquides présentant un risque d'inflammabilité sur la base de leur point d'éclair, déterminé par une méthode reconnue. Certains de ces règlements autorisent une dérogation si le produit concerné ne peut pas «entretenir la combustion» à une ou plusieurs températures spécifiées. La présente Norme internationale spécifie une méthode «tout ou rien» pour déterminer si un produit liquide, qui serait classé comme «inflammable» du fait de son point d'éclair, a ou n'a pas la capacité d'entretenir une combustion à la température ou aux températures spécifiées dans les règlements pertinents.
Le mode opératoire est applicable aux peintures (y compris les dispersions à l'eau), vernis, liants, solvants, produits pétroliers ou apparentés et aux adhésifs, qui ont un point d'éclair. Elle n'est pas applicable aux surfaces peintes en ce qui concerne leur comportement au feu.
