"Advanced Concepts in Self-heating"
Host: DOUG BYRON, President of Forensic and Scientific Testing
Info: The presence in fatty acid-based products is becoming more prominent in consumer markets. Under the right conditions these products can self-heat to the point of open flame combustion. To understand these fires, it is necessary to understand their progression from application of the product to the smoldering stage, and through to open flames. Combining the scene indicators and laboratory testing can help include or exclude this fire scenario. Using the proposed updates to the laboratory testing of fire debris evidence, demonstrations, and case examples, attendees will gain an understanding of how to use the presented information when they encounter suspected self-heating fires.
