TY - JOUR PY - 1978// TI - Flammability merit sequence and specimen homogeneity JO - Fire technology A1 - McGuire, J. H. A1 - D'Souza, MV SP - 273 EP - 278 VL - 14 IS - 4 N2 - Composite assemblies of materials of sharply different thermal properties cannot be listed in a flammability merit sequence intended to have a wide range of application. For such assemblies, relative flammabilities depend on the time scale of the flammability test utilized. Metal-foil-faced foamed plastics exhibit this effect to a marked degree.
