Definitions

  • This invention relates to a liquefied gas fuel for generating brighter flames of various colors, such as red, yellow, yellowish green, green, blue and purple, at the time of combustion.
  • liquefied gas fuels for generating color flames in which inorganic salt, organic salt and boric acid ester, such as of a specific metal, that create a color flame singly and in combination, when dissolved in an organic solvent have been proposed.
  • Prior art are exemplified by Japanese Patent Publication Nos. 2322/1976 and 2323/1976.
  • These known liquefied gas fuels are generally used in combustion apparatuses such as gas lighters.
  • Organic salt, inorganic salt and boric acid ester of metal(s) are released, along with liquefied gas, into the atmosphere, when they are being burnt to generate a color flame.
  • inorganic salt, organic salt and boric acid ester of metal used in the prior art have low solubility in organic solvent like alcohol and therefore if mixed with a combustible liquefied gas, the combustibility would be reduced further. Consequently, due to effect of time, temperature, physical impact and physical change ( sudden change from liquid phase to gaseous phase ) at the time of combustion, an organic metal salt or the like would dissociate into end products which clog lighter's nozzle while being emitted. Color flame is therefore only intermittently generated, thus it is impossible to generate a stable color flame.
  • a liquefied gas fuel for generating a brighter color flame by dissolving an emission agents in a combustible liquefied gas vaporizing at atmospheric pressure.
  • the present inventors developed another liquefied gas fuel using an organic metal salt compound, an organic chelate compound including metal, an inorganic metal compound and boric acid ester as a color former, along with a surface active agent, and then filed Japanese Patent Application No. 143273/1987. Furthermore, the present inventors developed additionally another liquefied gas fuel using an organic metal salt compound, an organic chelate compound including metal, an inorganic metal compound and boric acid ester as a color former, along with an oxidising agent as color forming assistant, and then filed Japanese Patent Application No. 272819/1988.
  • these proposals are inadequate to solve the above-mentioned basic problems.
  • the present inventors have done further study and developed new liquefied gas fuel using a nitrogen compound as color forming assistant. It was possible to eliminate nozzle clogging and generate a brighter color flame that is much clear, compared to that generated in the prior art.
  • a color former is constituted by at least one compound selected from a group consisting of an organic metal salt compound, an organic chelate compound containing metal, an inorganic metal salt compound and boric acid compound Color former is dissolved in a combustible gas vaporizable at atmospheric pressure. Similarly, a color forming assistant agent of a nitrogen compound is also, dissolved in the same combustible gas.
  • the organic metal salt compounds used in this invention are: barium acetate, calcium acetate, cobalt acetate, cesium acetate, copper acetate, potassium acetate, lithium acetate, molybdenum acetate, sodium acetate, rubidium acetate, strontium acetate, barium cyclohexylbutyrate, cobalt cyclohexylbutyrate, copper cyclohexylbutyrate, lithium cyclohexylbutyrate, sodium cyclohexylbutyrate, strontium cyclohexylbutyrate, calcium cyclohexylbutyrate, cesium cyclohexylbutyrate, potassium cyclohexylbutyrate, molybdenum cyclohexylbutyrate, and rubidium cyclohexylbutyrate.

  • Color generated by the color former depends on the element contained in the color former as follows : Cardinal red results from Li (lithium) ; yellowish green from Ba (barium), orange red from Ca (calcium), green from Cu (copper), bluish purple from Cs (cesium), purple from K (potassium), yellowish green from Mo (molybdenum), yellow from Na (sodium), red from Sr (strontium), blue from Co (cobalt), and dark red from Rb (rubidium).

Abstract

Un combustible à base de gaz liquéfié donne une flamme colorée très lumineuse, prévient tout encrassement du brûleur grâce à une diminution remarquable de la dissociation et de la précipitation des sels métalliques inorganiques, engendre une flamme colorée stable qui ne vacille pas, et offre une couleur subordonnée aux différents constituants métalliques utilisés pour obtenir une flamme plus lumineuse que jamais observé auparavant. On produit ce combustible en prenant un agent colorant comportant au moins un composé parmi ceux à base de sels métalliques organiques, de chélate métalliques organiques, de sels métalliques inorganiques, et aussi des composés à base d'acide borique ainsi qu'un adjuvant de coloration qui comprend un composé azoté, et en les dissolvant dans un gaz inflammable qui se vaporise à la pression atmosphérique.
