On the flash point of butyl acetate
Butyl acetate is also a chemical product. Its flash point is related to safety and cannot be ignored.
The flash point is the lowest temperature when a flammable liquid can evaporate into a vapor and mix with air to form a flammable mixture. The flash point of butyl acetate is its important attribute.
In practice, in places where chemical operations are carried out, if you do not know the flash point of butyl acetate and act rashly, you will be in danger. If the ambient temperature is close to or higher than its flash point, a slight open flame, static electricity, etc., may cause instant combustion, and then cause the fire to spread, endangering human life and property.
Therefore, all those involved in the production, storage and transportation of butyl acetate should be well aware of its flash point value. In the production place, the measures of temperature control, fire prevention and anti-static must be comprehensive, so that the ambient temperature is always lower than its flash point, and fireworks are strictly prohibited. The equipment is well grounded to prevent static electricity accumulation. When storing, choose a suitable place, with good ventilation and stable temperature, and the container is tightly sealed to prevent the accumulation of volatile gas. During transportation, it is also necessary to be careful to avoid high temperature and vibration to ensure safety.
In short, the flash point of butyl acetate, in accordance with safety regulations, can be carried out in the chemical industry.
