Fire Resistance of Industrial FluidsASTM International, 1996 - 188 pages Focuses mostly on methods of evaluating how and to what extent hydraulic fluids and other fluids used in high-risk industrial situations resist catching on fire. The 14 papers from a symposium in Indianapolis, June 1995, also discuss the relatively neglected topics of potential toxicity of fluid com |
