Subject: Aqueous/Flammable solvent mixtures

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?

Thanks,
