Abstract

A solid fuel and a liquid fuel burning with a flame of a blue which is more or less maintained as a function of the percentage of cupric chloride CuCl2.2H2O and of the percentage of dichloroethane, relative to the proportions of alcohols in the case of liquids and of solid fuels of the hexamethylenetetramine, metaldehyde and similar type, in the case of solid fuels. In the case of the latter soaking the cupric chloride in the dichloroethane and then drying by evaporation of the halogenated hydrocarbon (dichloroethane) suffices to modify the composition of cupric chloride in order that when agglomerated with a solid fuel, or else diluted in solution in a liquid fuel in which it can dissolve, it subsequently burns with a blue flame. The density of the blue depending entirely on the concentration of CuCl2.2H2O in the composition.

Description

Combustible solide brûlant avec une flamme bleue.Solid fuel burning with a blue flame.

Combustible liquide brûlant avec une flamme bleue.Burning liquid fuel with a blue flame.

Combustible à diluer pour qu'il brûle avec une flamme bleue.Fuel to be diluted so that it burns with a blue flame.

La présente invention concerne un combustible solide et un combustible liquide brûlant avec une flamme d'un bleu plus ou moins soutenu en fonction du pourcentage de chlorure cuivrique CuCl2-2H20 et du pourcentage de dichloroéthane, par rapport aux proportions d'alcools pour les liquides et de combustibles solides du type héxaméthylène tétramine, métaldéhydes, etc. pour les combustibles solides.The present invention relates to a solid fuel and a liquid fuel burning with a more or less sustained blue flame depending on the percentage of cupric chloride CuCl2-2H20 and the percentage of dichloroethane, relative to the proportions of alcohols for liquids and solid fuels such as hexamethylene tetramine, metaldehydes, etc. for solid fuels.

Pour ces derniers, le trempage du chlorure cuivrique dans le dichloroéthane, puis le séchage par évaporation de l'hydrocarbure halogéné (dichloroéthane) suffit à modifier la composition du chlorure cuivrique, pour qu'aggloméré à un combustible solide, ou encore dilué en solution dans un combustible liquide dans lequel il peut se dissoudre, il brûle ensuite avec une flamme bleue. La densité du bleu dépendant entièrement de la concentration en CuCl22H20 dans la composition.For the latter, soaking the cupric chloride in dichloroethane, then drying by evaporation of the halogenated hydrocarbon (dichloroethane) is enough to modify the composition of the cupric chloride, so that it is agglomerated with a solid fuel, or even diluted in solution in a liquid fuel in which it can dissolve, it then burns with a blue flame. The density of the blue depends entirely on the concentration of CuCl22H20 in the composition.

Il est connu que l'adjonction d'un hydrocarbure halogéné (dichloroéthane, par exemple) dans une proportion faible, en solution avec des chlorures - sauf ceux du cuivre -, de l'éthylène-glycol et des alcools, permet de stabiliser une flamme de couleur. Pour le cuivre, il est préférable d'utiliser du dibromoéthane, car le dichloroéthane fait virer au bleu la flamme verte obtenue avec le chlorure cuivrique dissous dans les alcools.It is known that the addition of a halogenated hydrocarbon (dichloroethane, for example) in a small proportion, in solution with chlorides - except those of copper -, ethylene glycol and alcohols, allows to stabilize a flame of color. For copper, it is preferable to use dibromoethane, because dichloroethane causes the green flame obtained with cupric chloride dissolved in alcohols to turn blue.

L'objet de la présente invention est de préciser trois points essentiels concernant les flammes de couleur bleue: a- Pour les combustibles solides, un simple trempage
du chlorure cuivrique dans le dichloroéthane,
modifie celui-ci pour qu'une fois séché et broyé
puis mélangé puis comprimé avec un combustible
solide, avec une proportion minimale de 15 %
en poids par rapport à 85 % d'héxaméthylène
tétramine (avec ou sans liant), la composition
obtenue brûle avec une flamme bleue. Pour obtenir
un bleu soutenu, on doit pousser la proportion
de CuCl2-2H20 à 25 %. Et 75 % D'H.M.T.The object of the present invention is to specify three essential points concerning the blue flames: a- For solid fuels, a simple soaking
cupric chloride in dichloroethane,
modify it so that once dried and ground
then mixed and then compressed with a fuel
solid, with a minimum proportion of 15%
by weight compared to 85% hexamethylene
tetramine (with or without binder), the composition
obtained burns with a blue flame. To get
a deep blue, we must push the proportion
25% CuCl2-2H20. And 75% HMT

b- Si l'on pastille (à la pastilleuse) un mélange
de produit effervescent (identique à ceux utili
sés en pharmacie) à la poudre de chlorure cuivri
que pré-trempé (puis séché) dans du dichloroétha
ne, la pastille obtenue, diluée dans un alcool
éthylique ou méthylique, à raison de 5 % (bleu
diaphane clair) à 25 % (bleu "roi" soutenu) en
poids, permettra à la composition diluée obtenue
de brûler avec une flamme bleue. Le produit
effervescent étant éventuel.b- If you pellet (with a pelletiser) a mixture
of effervescent product (identical to those used
pharmacy) with copper chloride powder
only pre-soaked (then dried) in dichloroetha
ne, the lozenge obtained, diluted in an alcohol
ethyl or methyl, 5% (blue
clear diaphanous) at 25% (deep "king" blue) in
weight, will allow the diluted composition obtained
to burn with a blue flame. The product
sparkling being possible.

c- Si l'on concentre une solution aqueuse ou d'al
cool, sur-saturée de CuCl2-2H20 à raison de
50 % à 80 %, et qu'on trempe le chlorure cuivri
que dans du dichloroéthane avant séchage, ou
encore qu'on ajoute à la solution 1 % à 5 % de
dichloroéthane sous forme liquide, on obtiendra
une composition qui, diluée dans 75 % à 90 %
d'alcools, brûlera avec une flamme de couleur
bleue dont la densité de bleu dépendra de la
proportion de chlorure de cuivre dans l'alcool.c- If an aqueous or al solution is concentrated
cool, oversaturated with CuCl2-2H20 due to
50% to 80%, and soak the copper chloride
only in dichloroethane before drying, or
although we add to the solution 1% to 5% of
dichloroethane in liquid form, we will get
a composition which, diluted in 75% to 90%
liquor, will burn with a colored flame
blue whose density of blue will depend on the
proportion of copper chloride in alcohol.

Si l'on ajoute cette composition à 50 % d'essence
purifiée, héxane, etc.. dans une lampe à mèche,
on obtiendra une flamme bleue et blanche. If we add this composition to 50% gasoline
purified, hexane, etc. in a wick lamp,
we will get a blue and white flame.

(héxamine), détermine la densité du bleu obtenu, du bleu ciel au bleu dit "roi". 3) Method according to claims I & 2, characterized in that the proportion of copper chloride, varying from 5% to 30%, either in a solution of alcohols (ethyl, methyl), or mixed with a solid fuel like l 'HMT (hexamine), determines the density of the blue obtained, from sky blue to blue called "king". 4) Procédé selon l'une quelconque des revendications précédentes, caractérisé en ce qu'un pastillage de CuCl2-2H20, trempé dans le dichloroéthane puis séché, puis broyé et mélangé avec un produit effervescent du type pharmaceutique, ou même sans produit effervescent, permettra par dilution dans un alcool, entre 5 et 30 % en poids, d'obtenir un combustible qui brûlera avec une flamme bleue.4) Method according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that a tableting of CuCl2-2H20, soaked in dichloroethane then dried, then ground and mixed with an effervescent product of the pharmaceutical type, or even without an effervescent product, will allow by dilution in an alcohol, between 5 and 30% by weight, to obtain a fuel which will burn with a blue flame. 5) Procédé et composition, selon les revendications 1, 2 & 3, caractérisé en ce qu'on peut, soit procéder au trempage puis séchage dans le dichloroéthane, soit ajouter ce dernier à l'état liquide, dès lors qu'on dilue au moins 15 à 30 % de CuCl2-2H20 dans l'alcool et qu'on ajoute moins de 5 % de dichloéthane dans la solution. Toute proportion inférieure à 15 %, produit un bleu trop clair et diaphane pour différer de la flamme naturelle du méthanol pur, par exemple. Si l'on ajoute plus de 5 % de dichloroéthane, la flamme bleue est surmontée d'une flamme rouge due à la combustion de l'hydrocarbure halogéné et cette flamme est indésirable.5) Method and composition according to claims 1, 2 & 3, characterized in that one can either proceed to soaking and drying in dichloroethane, or add the latter in the liquid state, as soon as diluted with minus 15 to 30% of CuCl2-2H20 in alcohol and add less than 5% of dichloethane to the solution. Any proportion less than 15% produces a blue that is too light and diaphanous to differ from the natural flame of pure methanol, for example. If more than 5% dichloroethane is added, the blue flame is surmounted by a red flame due to the combustion of the halogenated hydrocarbon and this flame is undesirable. 6) Procédé selon l'une quelconque des revendications précédentes, caractérisé en ce que si l'on ajoute, dans une lampe à mèche (coton ou fibre de verre) une proportion variable (20/80 %) du combustible liquide ci-dessus décrit et d'essence purifiée du type héxane, on obtiendra une flamme à 50 % bleue et à 50 % blanche, car ces combustibles ne se mélangent pas et montent séparément, par capillarité, dans la mèche.6) Method according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that if one adds, in a wick lamp (cotton or fiberglass) a variable proportion (20/80%) of the liquid fuel described above and purified gasoline of the hexane type, a 50% blue and 50% white flame will be obtained, because these fuels do not mix and rise separately, by capillarity, in the wick. 7) Procédé selon l'une quelconque des revendications précédentes, caractérisé en ce que le mélange solide7) Method according to any one of the preceding claims, characterized in that the solid mixture CuCl2-2H20 (15 à 30 %) et H.M.T.
