Abstract
The Flammable Fabrics Accident Case and Testing System of the Office of Flammable Fabics, National Bureau of Standards, has two primary functions. The first is to develop candidate priorities for national mandatory standards for the flammability of fabric poducts. The second is to provide the basis for the development of realistic tests, which can discriminate between highly hazardous products and those of lower potential hazard.
