Abstract
Analysis of smoke generating properties of selected samples of wood and wood-based materials. As regards safety, wood is a flammable material, and its ignitability and smoke generation depend to a large extent on its chemical composition, density and thickness of element. Smoke emission is one of basic elements that characterise the fire environment. Consequently the objective of the paper was to carry out a comparative analysis of smoke generation of wood-based materials and wood at selected thermal expositions and at the presence or absence of a stimulus igniting the volatile gaseous phase (pilot flame). For needs of experimental research use was made of: samples (oak and pine) and wood-based materials (MDF boards, OSB, chipboard, laminated chipboard). Experimental research has been carried out based on the standard PN ISO 5659 – 2:2013- 06.
