  2. Flammable liquid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flammable_liquid

    A flammable liquid is a liquid which can be easily ignited in air at ambient temperatures, i.e. it has a flash point at or below nominal threshold temperatures defined by a number of national and international standards organisations.

  3. HAZMAT Class 3 Flammable liquids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HAZMAT_Class_3_Flammable...

    Class 3: Flammable Liquids A flammable liquid is a liquid having a flash point of not more than 60 °C (140 °F), or any material in a liquid phase with a flash point at or above 37.8 °C (100 °F) that is intentionally heated and offered for transportation or transported at or above its flash point in a bulk packaging. The following exceptions ...

  4. Globally Harmonized System of Classification and Labelling of ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Globally_Harmonized_System...

    Flammable liquids are categorized by flammability, from Category 1 with flash point < 23 °C and initial boiling point < 35 °C to Category 4 with flash point > 60 °C and < 93 °C. Flammable solids are classified as solid substances which are readily combustible or may contribute to a fire through friction, and ignitable metal powders. They ...

  5. Combustibility and flammability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combustibility_and...

    For example, in the United States flammable liquids, by definition, have a flash point below 100 °F (38 °C)—where combustible liquids have a flash point above 100 °F (38 °C). Flammable solids are solids that are readily combustible, or may cause or contribute to fire through friction.

  6. NFPA 704 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NFPA_704

    Liquids having a flash point below 22.8 °C (73 °F) and having a boiling point at or above 37.8 °C (100 °F) or having a flash point between 22.8 and 37.8 °C (73 and 100 °F). 4 Will rapidly or completely vaporize at normal atmospheric pressure and temperature, or is readily dispersed in air and will burn readily (e.g., gasoline , acetylene ...

  7. Flash point - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flash_point

    A certain concentration of a flammable or combustible vapor is necessary to sustain combustion in air, the lower flammable limit, and that concentration is specific to each flammable or combustible liquid. The flash point is the lowest temperature at which there will be enough flammable vapor to support combustion when an ignition source is ...

    Group J: Article containing both an explosive substance and flammable liquid or gel Group K: Article containing both an explosive substance and a toxic chemical agent. Group L: Explosive substance or article containing an explosive substance and presenting a special risk (e.g., due to water-activation or presence of hybergolic liquids ...

  9. Propylene oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propylene_oxide

    Propylene oxide is an extremely flammable liquid, and its vapors can form explosive mixtures with air at concentrations as low as 2.3% (Lower Explosive Limit). [25] Propylene oxide vapor is twice as dense as air.
