This document from RoseBrand may be helpful.

I have seen a Fire Marshal conduct a "match test" as follows: Cut a one inch square swatch of material from a seam or other unnoticed location. Hold a lit paper match to it for ten seconds. Once the flame is removed, the material must self-extinguish and not be able to sustain the flame on its own.
