PROPERTIES OF
FLAMMABLE LIQUIDS, GASES, AND SOLIDS
This bulletin gives pertinent data concerning the fire and explosion hazards of flammable liquids, gases, and solids found in industrial plants. The table in this edition includes more than 200 materials not previously listed as well as additional data on previous listings. Values pre sented are for information and general guidance only and are not to be regarded as official standards.
The data on flash points, auto-ignition temperatures and susceptibility to spontaneous heating has been assembled mostly from the results of tests made by the Factory Mutual Laboratories. Most of the data on explosive ranges was obtained from publications of the Bureau of Mines, but some material was obtained from other sources. Data on boiling points, melting points, and specific gravities were obtained from publications of Carbide & Carbon Chemicals Corp., E. I. du Pont de Nemours & Co., Commercial Solvents Corp., U. S. Industrial Chemicals, Inc., Dow Chemical Co., Sharpies Solvents Corp., the International Critical Tables, the Condensed Chemical Dictionary, 1942 edition, and tests made in the Factory Mutual Laboratories. Samples for test purposes were furnished by the listed companies, by plants insured in the Factory Mutuals, and others. Grateful acknowledgment is made to all contributors for adding to the completeness and reliability of the table.
Minor variations in flash point, auto-ignition and explosive range figures are to be expected even among most competent observers. Purity of samples tested may be responsible for considerable differences in reported results. In most cases such minor variations have little practical significance. In case of difference of opinion as to fire hazard characteristics of any specific com pound, tests should be made from a sample of the particular compound in question. The facilities of the Factory Mutual Laboratories are available to Factory Mutual insured plants for such purposes.
Characteristics of Flammable Liquids . The use of flammable liquids in industrial plants
introduces a serious life and fire hazard. It is important to segregate processes involving such liquids and to pro vide reasonable safeguards. Machinery and piping should be properly installed, adequately maintained, and intelligently operated.
When new installations or changes involving flam mable liquids are planned, consult your Insurance Com pany in advance, and submit detailed plans for comment and approval. This procedure will not only avoid the possibility of expensive changes to reduce life and fire hazards after completing the work but may forestall the costly installatioApf some safeguards which happen to be unnecessary. State and municipal regulations and ordinances should be observed.
A flammable liquid itself does not burn; it is the vapors from the liquid which burn. The rate at which different liquids vaporize varies greatly, depending on their vapor pressure. Vaporization increases with the temperature, and a flammable liquid at elevated tem perature is therefore more hazardous than the same liquid at normal temperature.
Flash Point The flash point of a flammable liquid is the lowest
temperature at which it gives off enough vapors to form a flammable or ignitible mixture with air near the sur face of the liquid or within the container used. Many hazardous liquids have flash points at or below ordinary room temperatures, and they normally are covered by a layer of flammable vapors which will ignite immediately if a source of ignition is brought near.
Both closed and open cup test results are reported. The open cup flash point is usually somewhat higher than the closed cup flash point for the same substance.

Fire Point The lowest temperature at which a liquid in an open
container will give off enough vapors to continue to bum when once ignited is the fire point. It is generally slightly above the open cup flash point.
Explosive Range (Flammability Limits) The explosive range includes all concentrations of a
mixture of flammable vapor or gas in air (usually ex pressed in per cent by volume) in which a flash will occur or a flame will travel if the mixture is ignited. The lowest percentage at which thisoccurs is the lower explo sive limit, and the highest percentage, the upper explo sive limit. If such a mixture is confined and ignited, an explosion results. Many common flammable liquids and gases have very wide explosive ranges. That of carbon disulfide is 1% to 50% and hydrogen 4.1% to 74.2%, which shows that only very lean or unusually rich mixtures of these materials in air are free from an explo sion hazard.
The explosive ranges in the table are based upon normal atmospheric temperatures and pressures. There may be considerable variations in explosive ranges at pressures or temperatures above or below normal.
Auto-Ignition Temperature The auto-ignition temperature of a substance whether
solid, liquid, or gaseous, is the lowest temperature re quired to initiate or cause self-sustained combustion in the absence of a spark or flame. This temperature varies considerably, depending upon the nature, size, and shape of the igniting surface or container and other factors. The auto-ignition temperature of a solid is in fluenced by its physical condition and the rate of heating. Vapors of several common flammable liquids can be ignited under favorable conditions by metals heated to temperatures as low as 500F. The vapor of carbon disulfide can be so ignited at a temperature of about 257F.
Susceptibility to Spontaneous Heating Many flammable liquids combine readily with the
oxygen in the air at ordinary temperatures and give off heat. When these liquids are present on waste, rubbish, or other material under conditions in which heat is pro duced faster than it is dissipated, the temperature rises and ignition may occur.
Specific Gravity Most flammable liquids will float on water where they
can burn freely and flow over a large area. A few are heavier than water, and water will float on them and extinguish a fire. The specific gravity of a flammable liquid is important, as it indicates the proper type of fire extinguisher, the need of overflow drains on open tanks of flammable liquids, and the necessity of other special precautions.
Vapor Density Vapor density is the relative density of the vapor as
compared with air. The vapors of all flammable liquids are heavier than air. This explains why flash fires in flammable vapors often cover large areas and travel long distances along the floor or ground, and shows that ventilating outlets should be located near the floor level.
Many combustible gases by contrast are lighter than air and require ventilation taken from near the ceiling.
Melting Point The melting point is important in those materials
which ari solid at ordinary temperature but assume the characteristics of flammable liquids when in the melted state, such as naphthalene, tallow, and similar substances.
Boiling Point The lower the boiling point, the more volatile and
therefore the more hazardous a flammable liquid.
Miscibility with Water A flammable liquid's miscibility, or ability to mix with
water, is important since the flash and fire points of a flammable liquid are appreciably raised as the amount of water in the mixture is increased. It is possible to make flammable liquids such as alcohol and acetone, which are miscible with water, entirely non-flammable by sufficient dilution. These water mixtures are conductors of elec tricity, and charges of static electricity cannot accumu late in flammable liquids miscible with water.
Viscosity Viscosity is definitely related to the fire hazard of
flammable liquids because viscous liquids spread slowly when liberated, and fires in them generally burn in a much smaller area than in equal volumes of free-flowing, less viscous liquids.

ABBREVIATIONS AND SYMBOLS
The following abbreviations are not used in the alphabetical
listing but are shown with some names to identify the compound
exactly.
.
o -- ortho p -- para
m -- meta
prim -- primary
sym -- symmetrical
n -- normal sec -- secondary ter -- tertiary
The numerical prefixes mono-, di-, tri-, and tetra- will be found in regular alphabetical order.
d. -- decomposes > -- greater than

*An asterisk following the name of a metal indicates that hydrogen will be liberated when the metal is in contact with water. With the exception of potassium and sodium, hydrogen will be liberated in hazardous quantities only if the metal is in a finely
divided form.
The properties of asphalts, naphthas, oils, fats, and waxes vary over a large range as indicated. When it is necessary to know the exact hazard of a material, a sample should be sent to the Factory Mutual Laboratories at 184 High St., Boston 10, Mass., for test.
Flash Point. The approximate closed-cup flash points of hydrocarbons (organic compounds composed of only carbon and. hydrogen) may be determined by the use of the following formula:
Closed cupflash point F. =0.73 x [initial] boiling point F. -- 122
For petroleum and coal-tar distillates, the formula is applicable in practice between initial boiling points of 100F.-550F.
Explosive Limits. The data given for the lower and upper explosive limits are, with few exceptions, the values for upward flame propagation throiigh a cylindrical tube at normal atmo
spheric pressures and temperatures.
Vapor Concentrations and Explosive Mixtures. The follow
ing calculations can be used to determine the volume of vapor pro duced by the evaporation of a known solvent and the amount of air required to maintain mixtures below the explosive limit. The computations are based on a temperature of 70F. and normal atmospheric pressure. In calculating safety ventilation, a large
factor of safety should be used because of the difficulty in main taining close control over the conditions affecting the hazard. Recommended safe practice requires the operation of equipment
at not over 25% of the lower explosive limit concentration.

Suitable Extinguishing Agents. The code numbers in the last column indicate the following extinguishing agents.
1. Water (See Note A below)
2. Foam '
3. Carbon dioxide or dry chemical
4. See Note B below. (Gas fires.)
5. Approved dry compound for metal fires.
Note A: Water discharged from spray nozzles bdhaves differently from water discharged from hose streams or from sprinklers dis charging relatively large drops. The finely divided drops from a spray nozzle absorb much more heat than an equal weight of water from a hose stream or an equal weight oflarge drops from a sprinkler. In geneftl, water spray nozzles are suitable for use on fires in flammablesquids having a flash point over 150 F., but before purchasingnow equipment, consult your Insurance Company or the Factory Mutual Engineering Division. In many cases, water from automatic sprinklers will control fire in flammable liquids.
If water is applied to a tank of material such as tempering oil or asphalt, the body of which is at a temperature above 250 F., the steam formed under the surface will cause foaming resulting in a rapid increase in the volume of the liquid. Under fire conditions, the tank may be overflowed and the fire spread by this means. Foaming-over may also result from the application of foam since foam is largely water. To avoid foaming-over, specially arranged fixed-piping foam extinguishers are available for use on open tanks containing materials heated above 250 F. Dry chemical extinguishers may also be used and will not cause foaming-over.
Note B: While carbon dioxide, dry chemical, and in some in stances, water spray may be used to extinguish small gas fires, the extinguishment of gas fires by these extinguishing agents is not generally recommended since the discharge of gas or volatile liquid will continue unless shut off promptly and may well create a more serious explosion hazard. Generally, the best procedure is to use water to keep the surroundings cool until the leak can be shut off or until the volatile liquid has completely vaporized.
I.C.C. SHIPPING LABELS
Red --Flammable liquids with flash points at or below 80 F. and flammable compressed gases. -
