Surgical Mask Flame Retardant Tester

The Surgical Mask Flame Retardant Tester is designed to evaluate the flame-retardant performance of surgical masks. In the event that a mask is accidentally exposed to flame, its flame-retardancy directly affects the safety of medical personnel. This instrument provides quantitative assessment of burning behavior, after-burning time, and smoldering, serving as a critical quality indicator for surgical masks.

The tester simulates actual use by mounting the mask on a head model and moving it over a flame igniter at a controlled linear speed, while recording flame interaction parameters.

Application

The Surgical Mask Flame Retardant Tester is applicable to flame-retardancy evaluation across the following industries and products:

(1) Medical and Healthcare Industry: surgical masks, disposable medical masks, N95/FFP masks, protective masks

(2) Protective Clothing Industry: flame-retardant facial protective equipment, medical gowns with mask integration

(3) Research and Development: development of flame-retardant mask materials, testing new mask prototypes, material performance evaluation

(4) Quality Control: production batch verification, monitoring mask compliance with flame-retardant standards

(5) Third-Party Testing Laboratories: certification testing, product performance verification, laboratory evaluations for regulatory compliance

The instrument is widely used for product development, production quality control, R&D, and laboratory testing.

Standards

The instrument complies with and can be applied to the following standards (including but not limited to):

(1) GB 19083-2010 – Technical Requirements for Medical Protective Masks — Synthetic Blood Penetration and Barrier Performance

(2) YY 0469-2011 – Technical Requirements for Medical Surgical Masks — Blood Penetration Test Device

(3) GB 2626-2006 – Respiratory Protective Equipment — Filtered Particulate Respirator — Flammability

(4) BS EN 136-1998 – Respiratory Protection Equipment — Full Face Mask Requirements — Flammability Test
