Abstract

For the safe handling of 2-methyl-1-butanol being used in various ways in the chemical industry, the flash point and the autoignition temperature(AIT) of 2-methyl-1-butanol was experimented. And, the lower explosion limit of 2-methyl-1-butanol was calculated by using the lower flash point obtained in the experiment. The flash points of 2-methyl-1-butanol by using the Setaflash and Pensky-Martens closed-cup testers measured and , respectively. The flash points of 2-methyl-1-butanol by using the Tag and Cleveland open cup testers are measured and . The AIT of 2-methyl-1-butanol by ASTM 659E tester was measured as . The lower explosion limit by the measured flash point was calculated as 1.30 Vol.%. It was possible to predict lower explosion limit by using the experimental flash point or flash point in the literature.
