Description
Flammability

Flammable gases or highly volatile flammable liquids with flash points below 73 F, and boiling points below 100 F.
Materials may ignite spontaneously with air.

Materials capable of ignition under almost all normal temperature conditions. Includes liquids with flash points below
73 F and boiling points above 100 F

Materials that require moderate heating or exposure to high ambient temperatures before ignition occurs. Includes
liquids having a flash point at or above 100 F but below 200 F

Materials that must be preheated before ignition will occur. Includes liquids, solids and semi solids having a flash point
above 200 F

Materials that will not burn

Reactivity

Materials that are readily capable of detonation or explosion at normal temperatures and pressures

Materials that are capable of detonation or explosive decomposition or reaction but require a strong initiating source
or undergo chemical change at normal conditions with moderate risk of explosion

Materials that are unstable and may undergo violent chemical change at normal temperature and pressure with low
risk for explosion

Materials that are normally stable but can become unstable at elevated temperatures and pressures.

Materials that in themselves are normally stable when exposed to heat, pressure or water
