These requirements cover long-term test procedures to be used for the evaluation of materials used for parts intended for specific applications in end products.
Together with the Standards mentioned in Supplementary Test Procedures, Section , these investigations provide data with respect to the physical, electrical,
flammability, thermal, and other properties of the materials under consideration and are intended to provide guidance for the material manufacturer, the molder, the
end-product manufacturer, safety engineers, and other interested parties.
A product that contains features, characteristics, components, materials, or systems new or different from those covered by the requirements in this standard, and that
involves a risk of fire or of electric shock or injury to persons shall be evaluated using appropriate additional component and end-product requirements to maintain
the level of safety as originally anticipated by the intent of this standard. A product whose features, characteristics, components, materials, or systems conflict with
specific requirements or provisions of this standard does not comply with this standard. Revision of requirements shall be proposed and adopted in conformance with
the methods employed for development, revision, and implementation of this standard.
