Activity specific to aerosols

LEREM has gained wide experience in the whole aerosol area, in particular in the following fields :

Flammability tests on aerosol containers

The flammability tests on aerosol containers have been regulated in the 2007 European agreement for international transportation of hazardous materials by road which refers to the part III of the Manual of tests and criteria and since 8 April 2008 in the new Directive 2008/47/CE :

Ignition distance test for spay aerosols,
Enclosed space ignition test for spay aerosols,
Aerosol foam flammability test for foaming products in aerosol dispensers.

Mechanical tests on aerosol containers

Measurement of internal pressure resistance of empty containers without valves in accordance with the standard NF H44-023 (FEA 621): at test, deformation and bursting pressures.

Filling and closing of aerosol containers

Lerem is able to fill with liquid propellants small amounts of aerosol containers.

Other studies :

Measurement of aerosol generator pressure at 50°C (conformity with the maximum legally permissible pressure and with the test pressure),
Drop test on fibreboard boxes filled with aerosols containers (IATA)
