Toluene autoignition temperature

Tables 16 and 17 Hst tke analytical test methods for different properties of interest. The Manufacturing Chemists Association, Inc. (MCA) has pubUshed the Chemical Safety Data Sheet SD 63, which describes in detail procedures for safe handling of use of toluene (46). The Interstate Commerce Commission classifies toluene as a flammable Hquid. Accordingly, it must be packaged in authorized containers, and shipping must comply with ICC regulations. Properties related to safe handling are autoignition temperature, 536°C explosive limits, 1.27—7.0 vol % in air and flash point 4.4°C, closed cup.

There is a good correlation between autoignition temperatures and octane or cetane numbers in motor fuels. Thus, toluene and diisopropyl ether make attractive additives for petrol while the low autoignition temperature of glycol ethers, diethyl ethers and some normal paraffins show them to have high cetane numbers and to be useful as cold start improvers for diesel compression/ignition engines. [Pg.183]
