Is diesel flammable?
Actually, Diesel is not flammable, it is combustible. The difference is the flash point. Diesel does not flash until 143 degrees Fahrenheit. Anything between 100 and 200 is combustible; less than 100 is flammable. Compare it to "gasoline" which has a flash point of -42 F (I think).
What is incombustible material?
An incombustible gas is one that does not burn or explode.(Incombustible means something that cannot be burnt.)Some good examples of incombustible gases arenitrogen (which is fortunate, because 78% of the air is nitrogen, and if nitrogen was combustible, the air would explode!)carbon dioxideargon
What are examples of flammable liquids?
gasolinekerosinefuel oilbunker fuel oildiesel oilcetanehexaneheptaneoctanenonanemolten asphaltetc.Technically, anything with a closed-cup flash point at or above 100 degrees F would be classified as a "combustible liquid" not "flammable liquid". This would include diesel and fuel oil. NFPA 30.
What is combustible fiber?
flammable material
Is menthol flammable or combustible?
yes
What is the difference between flammable and combustible material?
A flammable material has a lower flash point (100F or below) while a combustible material has a flash point of 100F or HIGHER. In other words, it's a lot easier for a flammable material to catch fire than a combustible one because of the minimal amount of energy (heat) required to get it going versus the higher requirement of a combustible material.
What are flammable materials.?
what is a flashpoint <><><> The temperature at which a substance gives off an ignitable vapor is the flash point. If the flash point is under 100 degrees F, it is a flammable (gasoline). If it is over 100, it is a combustible (diesel fuel). Flash point is NOT the ignition temperature.

Is isopropyl flammable or combustible?
Not flammable at room temperature, but combustible.
Is isopropyl myristate flammable or combustible?
Not flammable at room temperature, but combustible.
Do liquid flammables ignite more easily than combustibles?
In common usage flammable liquids are the same as combustible liquids in terms of their ability to catch fire. However, in the technical usage of hazardous materials transportation and of fire prevention, a combustible liquid has a higher flash point than a flammable liquid and is therefore less easily ignited. So, yes, flammable liquids ignite more easily than do combustible liquids.
