"This test method is applicable for rating various materials@ such as automotive trim materials and insulation composities@ for their ability to resist heat transfer@ heat degradation@ odor@ smoking@ and exothermic reaction. PURPOSE The purpose of this testing method is to obtain comparative dada which can be used to evaluate heat resistance and thermal insulation properties of various materials or composites when subjected to time temperature conditions which reflect ""in-car"" situations."
