Material Ignitability Testing

Material Ignitability Testing is a standardized experimental method that determines the susceptibility of a material to initiate and sustain combustion under specified thermal and environmental conditions, distinguishing it from other material hazard evaluations by focusing specifically on the ignition phase of fire behavior.
