1.1这些方法涵盖了实验室测试数据的开发，这些数据描述了用于从水中去除油和其他兼容液体的吸收性材料的性能。 1.2 本标准应用于测量和描述材料、产品或组件在受控实验室条件下对热和火焰的响应特性，不应用于描述或评估材料、产品或组件在实际火灾条件下的火灾危险或火灾风险。然而，该测试结果可作为火灾风险评估的要素，该评估考虑了与特定最终用途火灾危险评估相关的所有因素。 （有关具体的警告声明，请参阅10.4。） ====意义和用途====== 这些方法将作为以一致方式比较吸收剂的基础。 这些方法对于比较吸收剂和吸附剂并不有用，即使所有吸收剂都具有吸附剂特性。这两种材料都有主要的实用领域。 这些方法可能没有列出将使用过的吸附剂材料安全最终处置到环境中所需的所有安全和处置选项。必须遵守联邦、州和地方监管规则。

1.1 These methods cover the development of laboratory test data which describe the performance of absorbent materials used to remove oils and other compatible fluids from water. 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. (For a specific warning statement see 10.4.) ====== Significance And Use ====== These methods are to be used as a basis for comparison of absorbents in a consistent manner. These methods are not useful for a comparison of absorbents with adsorbents, even though all absorbents exhibit adsorbent properties. Both types of materials have prime areas of utility. These methods may not list all the safety and disposal options necessary for safe ultimate disposal of used sorbent material into the environment. Federal, state, and local regulatory rules must be followed.
