What is a Level 2 and Level 3 Aerosol?

The fire hazards are not the same for all aerosol products (e.g. compare shaving cream to spray paint). Aerosol products are grouped into Levels 1, 2 and 3 based on the percentage concentration of soluble and insoluble flammable liquids. Level 1 aerosol products are predominately water-based and their fire hazard is about the same as ordinary combustible goods in cartons. Typical Level 1 aerosol products include shaving cream, window cleaners, starch, rug shampoos, alkaline oven cleaners, etc. Level 2 aerosols are predominately water miscible flammable/combustible liquids; they produce intense fires that also cause ruptured cans to be propelled in several directions. Though the fire can spread, the relative small amount of water miscible liquid is quickly extinguished by sprinklers. Typical Level 2 aerosol products include hair sprays, deodorants, antiseptics, some furniture polishes, windshield deicers, etc. Level 3 aerosol products present the greatest challenge. They contain predominately insoluble flammable/combustible liquids that also produce intense fires, with the added hazard that a ruptured can releases flammable/combustible liquids that are not easily extinguished by sprinklers. Typical Level 3 aerosol products include paint, lacquer, lubricants, some furniture polishes, engine cleaners, some insecticides, oil-based antiperspirants, etc. Source: http://www.questlosscontrol.com/joomla/templates/rt_replicant2_j15/images/articles/Aerosols.pdf

An aerosol is a cloud of solid or liquid particles in a gas. I think you are asking if FDS contains a propellant. I believe the Isobutane in the product is used as a propellant and is also what makes the product flammable.


How do dragons get fire in them?

Dragon fire does not exist inside of dragons but is produced when fire dragons expel a flammable aerosol. The flammable fluid is stored from a modified lung organ, made into an aerosol through forcible mixing with air from the other lungs in the pharynx, ignited by heavy metal plates in the fore-throat and achieves full combustion only when it is clear of the dragon proper.
