摘要
Rate of heat release data for a range of silicones (fluids, elastomers, resins) were obtained using the cone calorimeter. These materials exhibit relatively low rates of heat release, a uniquely low dependence of rate of heat release on external heat flux, and low yields of carbon monoxide. The cone calorimeter provides a reliable, efficient methodology for the characterization of materials ranging from simple fluids to multicomponent elastomers and resins. Comparative data between silicones and organic-based materials were also obtained.
