Abstract

The inflammability regions of formaldehyde and air with small amounts of hyrocarbon (2·4 to 5·4 per cent) have been studied. The addition of propane or methane leads to a strong inhibition of the formaldehyde range together with the appearance of a second lobe structure of the curves described with pseudo cool flame characteristics. The influence is continuous and leads to a well laid out family of curves. Whenever hydrocarbon is present in the mixture, even in trace amounts, the properties of flames encountered are those of the hydrocarbon and not those of the formaldehyde mixture.
