Some fire tests use a "methenamine timed burning
tablet."
This tablet is specified in USA government
standards for furniture flammablity testing.
(See 16 CFR Part 1630.4 or CPSC standard FF 1-70.)
It is also specified in ASTM D2859. I have also
seen it used to test fire enclosures
in Europe.
Until February of this year, Eli Lilly supplied
this tablet as Catalog No. 1588. In February,
2002, Eli Lilly discontinued the tablet.
According to Eli Lilly, no other US manufacturer
has picked up this tablet; they did not know if
a Euro manufacturer was making the tablet.
I am looking for a source for this methenamine
tablet. If you can provide some pointers, I would
appreciate it.
Thanks, and best regards from San Diego,
Rich
