| Abstract |
This revised edition includes more than 350 chemicals of industrial importance arranged in 2 parts. Part 1 deals with solvents, flammable liquids and low melting point solids, while Part 2 is devoted to flammable gases. The properties listed in Part 1 include flash points, specific gravity, solubility in water, flammability limits in air, auto-ignition temperature, vapour density, melting and boiling points, and vapour pressure. Part 2 gives for each gas the specific gravity when liquefied, vapour density, explosive limits in air, auto-ignition temperature, critical temperature and pressure, and boiling point. |
