This work investigates the effects of external radiation, ambient pressure and microgravity on the flammability limits of fire-resistant (FR) materials. Future space missions may require spacecraft cabin environments different than those used in the International Space Station, 21%O2, 101.3kPa. Environmental variables include flow velocity, oxygen concentration, ambient pressure, micro or partial-gravity, orientation, presence of an external radiant flux, etc. Fire-resistant materials are used in astronauts, firefighter, and racecar driver suits, cable harnesses, airplane components, etc. However, their fire resistant characteristics, including flammability limits may depend on the environmental conditions and require further study.The addi...
