    The document describes the results of a burn lab experiment conducted by Appam Leisan. Four different fabric samples were tested by observing their behavior when exposed to a flame, in a flame, and after being removed from the flame. The odor and ash left behind were also described. Based on the observations, the likely fiber content of each fabric was identified as: cotton for Fabric 1, rayon or Tencel for Fabric 2, polyester or poly fleece for Fabric 3, and the fiber content for Fabric 4 was not determined.
