Maximum oxygen percentage for no flammable mixture of solvent in nitrogen

Can someone please give me info on how and where I can find a table (or ... something else) showing, for the most common solvents, the maximum oxygen content in nitrogen below which no mixture is flammable? In particular I am interested in ethyl acetate? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I know that kind of info is out there somewhere. Have you tried standard reference books like the CRC Handbook of Chemistry & Physics [adv: on Amazon & AbeBooks & eBay affil links] and Chemical Engineers Handbook [adv: suggestions on Amazon, AbeBooks, or eBay affil links] ? They might in in your local library.
