Many of our researchers use aqueous mixtures of miscible flammable solvents for their LC work. They often have questions about storage and whether to treat them as flammable or not. I've been looking for data that might show me flammability as a function of concentration for the common solvents such as CH3CN, MeOH, EtOH, IPA, etc. I've checked OSHA, NFPA and ASTM but can't find any solvent specific data. Does anyone know where I might find that information?
