What is a grease solvent?
A grease solvent is a chemical substance used to dissolve or remove grease, oils, and other stubborn residues from surfaces. These solvents typically contain organic solvents such as mineral spirits, acetone, or alcohol, which break down the molecular structure of grease, making it easier to clean. Grease solvents are commonly used in industrial cleaning, automotive maintenance, and household cleaning applications. It's important to use them in well-ventilated areas and follow safety guidelines due to their flammable and sometimes toxic properties.
What type of fire extinguisher do you use when a chemical fire occurs?

What does B1 on a fire extinguisher indicate?
Class B fire extinguishers are for fires of flammable liquids (grease, gasoline, oil, propane, paints). The numerical rating of "1" signifies the the number of square feet of the flammable fire that a non-expert could expect to put out.So, a B1 extinguisher will help put a flammable material fire on only one (1) square foot before it runs dry.
