FIRE SAFETY PRESENTATION

Pentane Blowing Agent
Flammability
  • Flash point of normal pentane = -49°C (-56°F) (Low flash points mean that flammability can become a concern even at room temperature.)

  • Lower Flammability Limit (LFL) = 1.4% by volume

  • Upper Flammability Limit (UFL) = 8.3% by volume

  • Mixtures containing less than 1.4% by volume (too lean) or greater than 8.3 % by volume (too rich) of pentane in air cannot burn.

  • Vapor density = 2.5
         - Vapor density<1 means that the gas is lighter than air and will rise.
         - Vapor density>1 means that the gas is lighter than air and will sink.
