Flash Point Fuels
Some common fuels and their flash points
Sponsored Links
The flash point of a chemical is the lowest temperature where enough fluid can evaporate to form a combustible concentration of gas.
The flash point is an indication of how easy a chemical may burn. Materials with higher flash points are less flammable or hazardous than chemicals with lower flash points.
Some fuels and their flash points at atmospheric pressure are indicated below:

Note! the AutoIgnition Temperature is not the same as Flash Point The AutoIgnition Temperature indicates the minimum temperature required to ignite a gas or vapor in air without a spark or flame being present.
