flash point preferred
Usage examples
  • The flash point is a general indication of the flammability or combustibility of a liquid. Below the flash point, insufficient vapour is available to support combustion. At some temperature above the flash point, the liquid will produce enough vapour to support combustion. (This temperature is known as the fire point.)
  • Flash points are measured by heating a liquid to specific temperatures under controlled conditions and then applying a flame. The test is done in either an “open cup” or a “closed cup” apparatus, or in both, in order to mimic the conditions of storage and the workplace.
