The flash point and the AIT(auto-ignition temperature) are the most important combustible properties used to determine the potential for the fire and explosion hazards of flammable material. In order to know the accuracy of data in MSDS(Material Safety Data Sheet), the flash point of n-acids were measured by using Pensky-Martens closed cup tester(ASTM D93), Setaflash closed cup tester(ASTM D3278), Tag open cup tester(ASTM D1310) and Cleveland open cup tester(ASTM D92). Also, the AIT of n-acids were measured by using ASTM E659-78 tester. The measured the flash points and the AIT were compared with literatures and MSDS in KOSHA. The measured the flash points and the AIT were different from those in literatures and MSDS. Therefore, This paper shows that it is needed to investigate the MSDS compatibility of n-acids for the fire safety objectives.

For the safe handling of n-tridecane, the lower flash points and AITs(auto-ignition temperatures) by ignition delay time were experimented. Also lower explosion limits by the lower flash points were calculated. The lower flash points of n-tridecane by using closed-cup tester were experimented $92^{\circ}C$ and $96^{\circ}C$. The lower flash points and fire point of n-tridecane by using open cup tester were experimented 100 oC and 103 oC, respectively. This study measured relationship between the AITs and the ignition delay times by using ASTM E659 apparatus for n-tridecane. The experimental AIT of n-tridecane was 223 oC. The calculated lower explosion limit by using measured lower flash point 92 oC for n-tridecane was 0.6 Vol.%.

세계적으로 GHS와 REACH의 도입으로 위험물의 위험성평가를 위한 기존의 MSDS 이용이 증가하여 MSDS의 정확도를 알아보기 위하여 n-Decanol의 인화점을 Tag closed tester, Seta-flash closed tester, Pensky-Martens closed tester, Cleveland open tester 기기를 이용하여 국내와 일본에서 각각 측정하였다. 실험은 국내와 일본에서 각각 다른 제조사에서 구입한 시약으로 인화점을 측정하였으며 인화점 값은 국내와 일본에서 유사한 값을 얻었으나 기존의 MSDS와 문헌의 인화점 값과 비교하여 차이가 크다는 것이 발견되었다. 본 연구에서는 국내와 일본에서 측정된 시험값의 타당성을 제시하고 제조업체가 MSDS를 작성할 시는 신중을 기하여 작성하여야 하며 GHS와 REACH를 위한 위험물분류시는 신뢰성 있는 기관에서 발행한 레포트를 참고로 할 것을 제시하였다.

The flash point is used to categorize inflammable liquids according to their relative flammability. Such a categorization is important for the safe handling, storage, and transportation of inflammable liquids. The flash point temperature of two binary liquid mixtures(n-octane+n-decane and n-octane+n-dodecane) has been measured for the entire concentration range using Seta-flash closed cup tester based on the ASTM D3278 method. The closed cup flash point temperature was estimated using the UNIFAC(Universal Functional Activity Coefficient) group contribution model. The experimentally derived flash point was also compared with the predicted flash point from the UNIFAC model. The UNIFAC model is able to estimate the flash point fairly well for n-octane+n-decane mixture and n-octane+n-dodecane mixture.

The flash point, explosion limits, autoignition temperature(AIT) are important combustible properties which need special concern in the chemical safety process that handle hazardous substances. For the evaluation of the flammable properties of n-butylacetate, this study was investigated the explosion limits of n-butylacetate in the reference data. The flash points, fire points and AIT by the ignition delay time of n-butylacetate were experimented. The lower flash points of n-butylacetate by using the Setaflash and Pensky-Martens closed-cup testers were $24^{\circ}C$ and $26^{\circ}C$, respectively. The flash points of n-butylacetate using the Tag and Cleveland open cup testers are measured $31^{\circ}C$ and $40^{\circ}C$, respectively. And the fire points of n-butylacetate by the Tag and Cleveland open cup testers were measured $32^{\circ}C$ and $41^{\circ}C$. The AIT of n-butylacetate measured by the ASTM 659E tester was measured as $411^{\circ}C$. The lower explosion limit of lower flash point $24^{\circ}C$, which was measured by the Setaflash tester, was calculated to be 1.40 vol%. Also, the upper explosion limit of upper flash point $67^{\circ}C$ the Setaflash tester was calculated to be 12.5 vol%.

The flash point of liquid solution is one of the most important flammability properties that used in hazard and risk assessments. Minimum flash point behaviour (MFPB) is showed when the flash point of a liquid mixture is below the flash points of the individual components. In this paper, the lower flash points for the flammable binary system, n-decane+n-octanol, were measured by Pensky-Martens closed cup tester. This binary mixture exhibited MFPB. The measured flash points were compared with the values calculated by the Raoult's law and the optimization method using van Laar and UNIQUAC equations. The optimization method were found to be better than those based on the Raoult's law, and successfully estimated MFPB. The opimization method based on the van Laar equation described the experimentally-derived data more effectively than was the case when the prediction model was based upon the UNIQUAC.

Flash point is the important indicator to determine fire and explosion hazards of liquid solutions. In this study, flash points of n-propanol+n-hexanol and n-butanol+n-hexanol systems were obtained by Seta flash tester. The methods based on UNIFAC equation and multiple regression analysis were used to calculate flash point. The calculated flash point was compared with the experimental flash point. Absolute average errors of flash points calculated by UNIFAC equation are $2.9^{\circ}C$ and $0.6^{\circ}C$ for n-propanol+n-hexanol and n-butanol+n-hexanol, respectively. Absolute average errors of flash points calculated by multiple regression analysis are $0.5^{\circ}C$ and $0.2^{\circ}C$ for n-propanol+ n-hexanol and n-butanol+n-hexanol, respectively. As can be seen from AAE, the values calculated by multiple regression analysis are noticed to be better than the values by the method based on UNIFAC eauation.

사이클로헥산올의 안전한 취급을 위해, 폭발한계는 문헌을 통해 고찰하였고, 인화점과 발화지연시간에 의한 발화온도를 측정하였다. 그 결과, 밀폐식 장치에 의한 사이클로헥산올의 하부인화점은$60^{\circ}C{\sim}64^{\circ}C$로 측정되었으며, 개방식에서는 $66^{\circ}C{\sim}68^{\circ}C$로 측정되었다. ASTM E659 장치를 사용하여 자연발화온도와 발화지연시간을 측정하였고, 사이클로헥산올의 최소자연발화온도는 $297^{\circ}C$로 측정되었다. 측정된 하부인화점과 상부인화점에 의한 폭발하한계는 0.95 Vol%, 상한계는 10.7 Vol%로 계산되었다.

The lower flash points for the binary system, n-butanol+n-decane, were measured by Pensky-Martens closed cup tester. The experimental results showed the minimum in the flash point versus composition curve. The experimental data were compared with the values calculated by the reduced model under an ideal solution assumption and the flash point-prediction models based on the Van Laar and Wilson equations. The predictive curve based upon the reduced model deviated form the experimental data for this system. The experimental results were in good agreement with the predictive curves, which use the Van Laar and Wilson equations to estimate activity coefficients. However, the predictive curve of the flash point prediction model based on the Willson equation described the experimentally-derived data more effectively than that of the flash point prediction model based on the Van Laar equation.
