Abstract
The autoignition temperature (AIT) is important index for the safe handling of flammable liquids which constitute the solvent mixtures. This study measured the AITs and ignition delay time for Benzene and n-Hexane system by using ASTM E659 apparatus. The AITs of Benzene and n-Hexane which constituted binary system were $583^{\circ}C$ and $240^{\circ}C$, respectively. The experimental AITs of Benzene and n-Hexane system were a good agreement with the calculated AITs by the proposed equations with a few A.A.D. (average absolute deviation).
