This is the ninth in a series of STP produced by ASTM Committee G4 on Flammability and Sensitivity of Materials in Oxygen-Enriched Atmospheres. This publication contains two of the papers in this volume were presented at seminars and workshops held in conjunction with the regular semi-annual meetings of Committee G4. The other papers contained in this volume were part of the Ninth International Symposium on Flammability and Sensitivity of Materials in Oxygen-Enriched Atmospheres held in Paris, France in September 2000.
This STP shares and expands upon the objectives of this series of symposiums including
- Provision of a readily accessible reference addressing oxygen compatibility
- Growth of a database on risk management concepts, practices, procedures
- Provision of data used by designers, manufacturers, and maintainers of oxygen components and systems
- Provision of data necessary to aid in the ongoing effort to model the ignition, combustion, and sensitivity of materials, both metallic and nonmetallic, in oxygen-enriched atmospheres
This ninth volume contains 32 papers on a variety of topics. These topics include ignition and combustion of metals, ignition and combustion of nonmetals, failure analysis and safety, material selection, test system development, and analysis of ignition and combustion. Additionally, due to the number of papers received specifically addressing issues associated with air-separation plants, a section on structured packings has been included in this STP.
Specific addressed by the papers in this collection include:
- particle impact
- ignition resistance
- ignition mechanism
- polymers
- aluminum particles
- promoted ignition-combustion
- Cr-Mo low alloy steel
