6、(ignition delay of 2.87 ms).Theaverage DCN result for each sample in the ILS ranged from37.29(average ignition delay of 4.5894 ms)to 56.517(averageignition delay of 3.0281 ms).1.4 The values stated in SI units are to be regarded asstandard.No other units of measurement are included in thisstandard.1
7、.5 This standard does not purport to address all of thesafety concerns,if any,associated with its use.It is theresponsibility of the user of this standard to establish appro-priate safety and health practices and determine the applica-bility of regulatory limitations prior to use.2.Referenced Docume
