What is the BSS Test?
BSS stands for Boeing Safety Standard. Commonly abbreviated to BSS,
the BSS 7239 is a test method for the generation of toxic gases by
specific materials upon combustion. When materials burn or ignite,
they release gases that can be hazardous to human health when they
reach certain levels. BSS 7239 determines exactly which and how
much toxic gases are emitted by burning a sample piece of material
of three inches by three inches in a controlled setting.
The test checks for the following gases:
Carbon monoxide (CO)
Hydrogen cyanide (HCN)
Sulfur dioxide (SO2)
Hydrogen chloride (HCL)
Hydrogen fluoride (HF)
Nitrogen oxides (NOx) (Both NO, nitric oxide, and NO2, Nitrogen dioxide, are detected)
There are multiple methods of measuring toxicity levels. One of the
most frequently used methods is spectrophotometry. This technique
is based on the fact that different compounds absorb light
differently. By shining light through the smoke that’s generated by
the combustion of the test material, it becomes possible to
distinguish exactly which compounds are present and in what
concentration.
Common Tests Performed with this Test
This flammability test, the BSS 7239, can be performed in
conjunction with ASTM E162, which exposes materials to a radiant
heat source in order to test the flame spread factor and heat
evolution factor. In addition, it can also be performed in
conjunction with ASTM E662, which measures the smoke density of
specific materials upon combustion. In this instance, the smoke
generated in ASTM E662 can be tested for toxicity using
spectrophotometry.
What does the Boeing Safety Standard 7239 test for?
As a highly effective toxic gas generation test, BSS 7239 is
required to measure the flame smoke toxicity (FST) of composites,
textiles, and coatings used in the railroad, aircraft and
government sectors. The reason for this is that the materials used
need to meet parts per million (PPM) standards and the results of
this test show the actual concentration of toxic gases emitted
during combustion of a material.
