  2. Flash point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flash_point

    The TAG flash point tester adheres to ASTM D56 and has no stirrer, while the Abel flash point testers adheres to IP 170 and ISO 13736 and has a stirring motor so the sample is stirred during testing. The flash point is an empirical measurement rather than a fundamental physical parameter.

  4. Dimethoxyethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimethoxyethane

    Dimethoxyethane is also a good solvent for oligo- and polysaccharides. Sodium naphthalide dissolved in dimethoxyethane is used as a PTFE etching solution that removes fluorine atoms from the surface, which get replaced by oxygen, hydrogen, and water. This physically etches the surface as well to prepare the surface for better adhesion. [6]

  5. Combustibility and flammability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combustibility_and...

    The technical definitions vary between countries so the United Nations created the Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labeling of Chemicals, which defines the flash point temperature of flammable liquids as between 0 and 140 °F (60 °C) and combustible liquids between 140 °F (60 °C) and 200 °F (93 °C).

  6. Diethyl carbonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diethyl_carbonate

    At room temperature (25 °C) diethyl carbonate is a colorless liquid with a low flash point. Diethyl carbonate is used as a solvent such as in erythromycin intramuscular injections . [ 4 ] [ 5 ] [ 6 ] It can be used as a component of electrolytes in lithium batteries .

  7. Paint thinner - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paint_thinner

    A paint thinner is a diluent solvent used to dilute paints or varnish. [1] [2] Organic solvents labelled "paint thinner" are usually turpentine or white spirits / mineral spirits for the use of diluting oil-based paints only. For water-based paints, such as acrylic paints, water is the primary solvent, but notably, may not always be the only ...

  8. Tributyl phosphate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tributyl_phosphate

    A 15–40% (usually about 30%) solution of tributyl phosphate in kerosene or dodecane is used in the liquid–liquid extraction (solvent extraction) of uranium, plutonium, and thorium from spent uranium nuclear fuel rods dissolved in nitric acid. Liquid extraction can also be used for chemical uranium enrichment.

  9. NFPA 704 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NFPA_704

    Liquids having a flash point below 22.8 °C (73 °F) and having a boiling point at or above 37.8 °C (100 °F) or having a flash point between 22.8 and 37.8 °C (73 and 100 °F). 4 Will rapidly or completely vaporize at normal atmospheric pressure and temperature, or is readily dispersed in air and will burn readily (e.g., gasoline , acetylene ...
