ASTM D2389

Scope

1.1 This test method covers the determination of the minimum pressure at which a monopropellant ignites in the vapor phase.

1.2 This standard should be used to measure and describe the properties of materials , products , or assemblies in response to heat and flame under controlled laboratory conditions and should not be used to describe or appraise the fire hazard or fire risk of materials , products , or assemblies under actual fire conditions. However , results of this test may be used as elements of a fire risk assessment which takes into account all of the factors which are pertinent to an assessment of the fire hazard of a particular end use.

1.3 This standard does not purport to address all of the safety concerns, if any, associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use.
