Flammability And Sensitivity Of Materials In Oxygen Enriched Atmospheres

Proceeding held at Churchill College, Cambridge, England, April 1987. A reference for both the skilled and the uninitiated in the concepts and practices for the design and maintenance of all types of oxygen systems. Cov five areas: ignition of metals, nonmetal ignition, material selection for oxygen.

Annotation Thirty-four papers presented at the symposium of the same name held in Cocoa Beach, Florida, May 1991, begin with a keynote address on combustion fundamentals of low volatility materials in oxygen-enriched atmospheres, and continue in sections on development and evaluation of test methods, ignition and combustion of nonmetals and of metals, analysis of ignition mechanisms, material selection, and miscellaneous topics.
