Abstract
The purpose of this study was to utilize the oven test method described in past literature by Bowes to predict the propensity of bulk materials to ignite spontaneously. The results of small-scale laboratory oven tests were analyzed and compared with large-scale fire incidents involving several materials in question, including latex examination gloves, residue from an aluminium polishing process, polyurethane purging, and various other plastic products. Where possible, an indication of the role of spontaneous ignition in the fire incidents was identified.
