The value of the critical temperature (Tc), below which the thermal explosion of a chemical cannot occur, is indispensable to prevent such a chemical from exploding. In order to determine the Tcit has so far been necessary to measure the value in explosion experiments. Because of the inherent hazards, only few Tcvalues are available at present. Critical Temperatures for the Thermal Explosion of Chemicalsintroduces new and simple procedures to calculate the Tc. As a result Tccan be calculated for a range of chemicals, many of which are listed in this new volume. The calculated values of Tcare shown to be in agreement with experimentally determined values. The data and methods presented inCritical Temperatures for the Thermal Explosion of Chemicalswill be of use to research laboratories as well as in the chemical industry.
