Burning in perfect combination with oxygen to produce blue flames. Did you see any blu flames at the trade centre?How do you think they melt steel anyway? Maybe Hydrocarbons?
Hint: Think Oil or Gas products

hey, even your formula has oxygen, so its still a carbohydrate, lol
Am I being asked a serious question by a man who has bothered to photoshop my avatar with a tin foil hat?
This gets worse.
although his notion that hydrocarbon fires cant hurt steel was flawed to begin with
hey docker, you never did tell me what acetylene does to steel
Carbohydrates are still hydrocarbons.
Now admit you are wrong and know nothing about hydrocarbons.
P.S. Where did you get your ridiculous formula for cellulose?
In chemistry, a hydrocarbon is any chemical compound that consists only of the elements carbon (C) and hydrogen (H). They all contain a carbon backbone, called a carbon skeleton, and have hydrogen atoms attached to that backbone. (Often the term is used as a shortened form of the term aliphatic hydrocarbon.) Most hydrocarbons are combustible. Although the term carbohydrate sounds similar, carbohydrates contain oxygen.
Over half of the total organic carbon in the earth's biosphere is in cellulose. Cotton fibres are essentially pure cellulose, and the wood of bushes and trees is about 50% cellulose. As a polymer of glucose, cellulose has the formula (C6H10O5)n where n ranges from 500 to 5,000, depending on the source of the polymer.
your statement was that hydrocarbon fires cannot "turn steel to rubber" which i guess taken literally is true, if you meant that literally i will concede my pointWhat does acetylene have to do with jet fuel fires?
Can anyone see the goalposts moving?

so where did your rediculous formula come from?

however, if you meant is a indication of strength, then it is false, hydrocarbon fires can in fact weaken and even melt steel, if you meant jet fuel cannot weaken steel, you shoudl have said jet fuel
In case anybody's looking for signature material, this might qualify.

According to NIST, the heat of the fires, whether from fuel or office supplies was hot enough to weaken steel, not melt it.

Wikipedia said:In chemistry, a hydrocarbon is any chemical compound that consists only of the elements carbon (C) and hydrogen (H).
Wikipedia said:Cellulose (C6H10O5)n is a long-chain polymeric polysaccharide carbohydrate, of beta-glucose
you may be right, im not sure, regardless, its still a carbohydrate, not a hydrocarbonMy formula is the formula for cellulose in wood. Which is what you asked for.
trueThe melting point of steel is much higher than the maximum temperature of jet fuel.
falseSteel does not turn to rubber in a hydrocarbon fire.
So, Docker, are you working your way around to explaining why your explosions didn't go BOOM?

QED
You know darn well that in my original post on the topic I referenced the previously posted video shot in real time at the scene.Who said they didnt? Dozens of people reported explosions
According to NIST? The same people that think 767s are shotguns.

Look and listen.
See the building bow inward. See the building collapse downward.
You do not hear any explosions, just a rumbling.

Why are you guys auguring with Docker you know he is right my hydrocarbon fueled acetylene torch can not heat steel enough to bend it.

Docker obviously has worked with a lot of steel, he knows so much about it!

I wonder if he even knows what exactly is burning in the first picture?
and if you are a bomb on every floor guy, it would take a year to do it, and the cords would be all over, just fact
So you admit oxyacetalyne torches were used in the world trade center. Thankyou
And you know all the details of the cameras microphone?

CH2O(s) + O2(g) -----> CO2(g) + H2O(g)
here is the equation of wood burning in oxygen
you are wrong
that appears to be a MAPP gas cylinder, which burns a bit cooler than acetylene, perhaps thats why you are having troubel working with steel
