Abstract
In a series of experiments it has been established that brush discharges from plastic surfaces are able to ignite the following gases and vapors: Propane, butane, 2,2-dimethylpropane, diethylether, acetone, ethylalcohol, acetic acid ethylester and mixtures of alkanes.With propane/air/nitrogen mixtures, which exhibit slowly increasing minimum ignition energies as a function of the additional nitrogen content, the equivalent energy of brush discharges was determined. For discharges between an electrode of 35 mm radius and a charged plastic surface of 0.13 m2, a value of 3.6 mJ has been obtained.
