Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 28, July 12, 2024
Any chemical manufacturing concern desiring to have a
					 chemical registered by the State Fire Marshal shall accompany its application
					 with the laboratory test report, and the registration fee as provided in

California Code of Regulations › Title 19 - Public Safety › Division 1 - State Fire Marshal › Chapter 8 - Regulations Relating to Flame Retardant Chemicals, Fabrics and Application Concerns › Article 3 - Registration and Labeling of Chemicals › Section 1211 - Standard Fabrics

Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 28, July 12, 2024
Persons wishing to submit a flame-retardant chemical for
					 registration by the State Fire Marshal shall first obtain standard fabrics in
					 accordance with the provisions of this section. For exterior chemicals a
					 10-ounce double filling grey duck (Federal Specification CCC-D-761, February,
					 1933) will be used, while for interior chemical a #250 cotton drill dyed blue
					 Pontamine 4GLN (or its equivalent) color index #533 will be the
					 standard.
Chemicals intended for the treatment of synthetics such as
					 acetate, nylon, Orlon and Dacron, and various fiber mixtures, shall be tested
					 as applied to appropriate fabrics made of such fibers or mixtures.
The concern submitting the sample for test may desize the
					 standard exterior fabric before application of the chemical if it so desires.
					 If this is done, however, the chemical will then be registered only for use on
					 unsized or desized fabrics. This is based on the premise that a chemical which
					 is effective on sized material will be at least equally effective on unsized
					 material, but that the reverse is not necessarily true. If the concern desires
					 to submit its chemical for test on desized material, the entire sample of
					 standard fabric shall be desized before any portion of it is treated with
					 chemical or cut for testing.
