Description / Abstract:
This part of ISO 8124 specifies the categories of flammable
materials that are prohibited in all toys, and requirements
concerning flammability of certain toys when they are
subjected to a minor source of ignition.
The test methods described in Clause 5 are used for the
purposes of determining the flammability of toys under the
particular test conditions specified. The test results thus
obtained cannot be considered as providing an overall indication of
the potential fire hazard of toys or materials when subjected to
other sources of ignition.
This part of ISO 8124 includes general requirements relating to
all toys and specific requirements and test methods relating to the
following toys, which are considered as being those presenting the
greatest hazard:
— toys intended to be worn on the head: beards, moustaches,
wigs, etc. made from hair, pile or material that behaves in a
similar manner to hair; masks; hoods, headdresses, etc.;
flowing elements of toys to be worn on the head, but excluding
paper novelty hats of the type usually supplied in party crackers
(see A.4);
— toy disguise costumes and toys intended to be worn by a child
in play (see A.5);
— toys intended to be entered by a child (see A.6);
— soft-filled toys (see A.7).
NOTE 1 Additional requirements for flammability of
electric toys are specified in IEC 62115.
NOTE 2 There are very few accident data concerning the hazards
associated with the flammability of toys.
NOTE 3 See A.2.
