Flammability

Flammable and combustible liquids are liquids that can burn. The main difference between the two is that flammable liquids can catch fire and burn easily at ambient temperatures, whereas combustible liquids require higher than normal temperatures to ignite.

Is 1-octanol a flammable liquid according to NFPA?

Flash point of 81C<100C, so 1-octanol is flammable

Safety Glasses

Have metal or plastic safety frames and impact-resistant lenses. Side protection is also required.

Welding Shield

Protect eyes from burns caused by intense light. Protect eyes/face from flying sparks and metal spatter.

Which form of eye protection is most appropriate for use in the general chemistry lab?

Safety glasses or goggles

Serious or permanent injury

Flash Point

The flash point is the minimum temperature at which a liquid forms a vapor above its surface in sufficient concentration that it can be ignited. Liquids with lower flash points ignite more easily. Flammable liquids have a flash point of <100°F. Combustible liquids have a flash point of >100°F.

Fire Point

The lowest temperature at which the vapors keep burning after the ignition source is removed. The fire point is higher than the flash point for a substance.
