Laboratory Safety-Flammable Liquids
Properties of Flammable Liquids
Definitions: FLASH POINT
The temperature at which a liquid gives off sufficient vapors to form an ignitable mixture with air…near the surface of the liquid.

Laboratory Safety-Flammable Liquids
Properties of Flammable Liquids
Definitions: Ignition Temperature
The minimum temperature required to initiate or cause self-sustained combustion without ignition from an external source. Also called auto-ignition temp.

Laboratory Safety-Flammable Liquids
Properties of Flammable Liquids
Definitions: Upper and Lower Explosive Limits
The range of concentration of a flammable gas or vapor (% volume in air) in which a explosion can occur upon ignition in a confined area.
