The following content will explain the flame retardant test of building materials and the fire test standard GB 8624 Chinese standard:
GB8624 Combustion Performance Classification of Building Materials and Products - Standard Name:
GB8624-2006: Combustion performance classification of building materials and products
GB 8624-2006: Classification for burning behavior of building materials and products
GB8624 Combustion Performance Classification of Building Materials and Products - Standard Overview:
In the more than ten years since its implementation, GB8624 has served as a guideline for grading the combustion performance of China's building materials and some specific materials used inside buildings. It evaluates the fire performance of materials, guides fire safety design, implements fire safety supervision, and implements fire protection design specifications It has played an important role and produced significant social and economic benefits.
GB8624 Combustion Performance Classification of Building Materials and Products - Standard Scope of Application:
GB8624 proposes a combustion performance classification procedure for all building materials and products. Architectural products are considered in their final form of application.
GB8624 is applicable to two types of building products: floor coverings;
Building products other than floor coverings classification: A1,A2, B,C,D,E,F | Level F : Tested according to GB/T 8626 but failed to meet the requirements of Level E. Level E : tested according to GB/T 8626 and meets the requirements Level D, C, B : tested according to GB/T 8626 and GB/T 20284 and meet the requirements Level A2 : conducted according to GB/T 20284 and GB/T 5464 or GB/T 14402 Level A1 : tested according to GB/T 5464 and GB/T 14402 and meets the requirements |
Flooring and floor covering materials classification: A1fl ,A2fl ,Bfl,Cfl, Dfl,Efl,Ffl | Level F fl : tested according to GB/T 8626 but failed to meet the requirements of Level E E fl level: tested according to GB/T 8626 and meets the requirements D fl , C fl , B fl level: tested according to GB/T 8626 and GB/T 11785 and meet the requirements A2 fl level : according to GB/T 11785 and GB/T 5464 or GB/T 14402 A1 fl : tested according to GB/T 5464 and GB/T 14402 and meets the requirements |
