Turpentine, flash-point

For some purposes (manufacture of varnishes and paints), substitutes for oil of turpentine (pinewood oil, mineral oils) are now admitted, since they are almost or quite colourless and non-fluorescent, while they emit no unpleasant odour, do not alter the tint of varnishes or paints, have the same solvent properties as oil of turpentine and have specific gravities and flash points not greatly inferior.

Class IC - Liquids with flash points at or above 73°F and below 100°F. Examples of Class IC flammable liquids are turpentine and n-butyl acetate (NFPA Diamond 3). [Pg.171]

GUM SPIRITS or GUM TURPENTINE (8006-64-2) Forms explosive mixture with air (flash point 95°F/35°C). Violent reaction with strong oxidizers, halogens, chlorine, fluorine, iodine, calcium hypochloride, chromyl chloride, dichlorine oxide, ethylene, nitric acid, tin(IV) chloride. Incompatible with strong acids, chromic anhydride, chromyl chloride, diatomaceous earth, hexachloromelamine, stannic chloride. Attacks ordinary rubber. [Pg.606]

Mineral Spirits, Petroleum spirits white spirits turpentine substitutes. Name applied to various types of hydrocarbon solvents, primarily petroleum distillates, which have flash points above- lOO F (38°C) and distillation ranges between 300°F (149°C) and 415°F (213 C). See A.S.T.M-Standard Specifications D 235-83, 71-73 (1983). [Pg.976]

When adulterated with most types of petroleum products, the temperature of distillation rises gradually, and no large fractions are obtained at any definite temperature when the adulteration is at all excessive. The presence of ordinary petroleum spirit lowers the flash-point of turpentine. When pure it flashes at 92 to 95 F. when tested in Abel s flash-point apparatus. With only 1 per cent, of ordinary petroleum spirit this temperature is reduced by 10. ... [Pg.20]
