A test chamber for performing complete investigation of the dangerous effects of thermal degradation products of polymeric materials has been designed. The tow‐chamber system with separated combustion chamber and smoke chamber has a steep temperature gradient between both chambers and enables continuous analysis of combustion products of the tested polymeric material for carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide to be performed, to monitor the oxygen content in the chamber during testing and to perform tests of biological toxicity on mice as test animals. The function of the test chamber was verified on combustion of polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene and polyamide samples.
