Abstract
The spontaneous ignition of a flammable matter is a crucial factor for the prevention of a fire. The minimum ignition temperatures of Gasoline and Cenox in $1000{\mu}l$ of a sample were determined to be $340.5^{\circ}C\;and\;368.5^{\circ}C$ respectively. In addition when the time taken for ignition was 1.0 sec, the instantaneous ignition temperatures were $416^{\circ}C\;and\;427^{\circ}C$ respectively. Moreover, the changes in the minimum ignition temperature were small when less than 60 v/v% of Cenox was added, but the changes were great when 80 v/v% or more was added. Therefore, it is hypothesized that, when used as a fuel in the Gasoline engine, the ratio of the mixture of Cenox and Gasoline will be a very important factor.
