Division 1.1
There is no class 3.1 in the system for classifying the hazards of materials in transportation. Class 3 is for flammable liquids and has no further divisions. Until about the year 2000, the classification system issued by the International Maritime Organization for hazardous materials transported by ocean vessel did have divisions in the Class 3 flammable liquid category. Those have been invalid for many years and any document listing a material as Division 3.1 instead of Class 3 would be unacceptable, even in marine transportation.
Class A ; compressed gas Class B ; combustible and flammeble material Class C ; Oxidizing material Class D1 ; Poisonous and Infectionous materials Class D2 ; Poisnous and Infectionous materials Class D3 ; Poisnous and Infectionous materials
In the US and international scheme for classifying hazardous materials in transportation, flammable liquids are in Hazard Class 3.
WHMIS or Workplace Hazardous Materials Information System is a proper safety compliance system designed for workers involved in handling different kinds of hazardous materials. The system is created to show different classes of hazardous material warnings: Class A Compressed gas WHMIS Class D-2.svg Class B Flammable and combustible material Class C Oxidizing material Class D-1 Materials causing immediate and serious toxic effects Class D-2 Materials causing other toxic effects Class D-3 Biohazardous infectious material Class E Corrosive material Class F Dangerously reactive material
JP-8, a type of Jet Fuel with a flash point of 46 Cº, is a Class 3 Flammable Liquid under the regulations for Hazardous Materials Transportation.
Acetone, as a Class 3 flammable liquid, should be transported in approved containers that are specifically designed for transporting hazardous materials. It should be properly labeled and secured during transport to prevent leaks or spills. Additionally, transporters should comply with regulations set by the Department of Transportation (DOT) for shipping hazardous materials.
There is no such thing as a Class 3.1, or a Division 3.1 in the DOT scheme of classifying hazardous materials. The International Maritime Dangerous Goods Code used to use a Division 3.1 for the most flammable of flammable liquids, but that was removed from the code more than 10 years ago. At present, hazardous materials may be described simply as "Class 3" if they meet the definition of flammable liquids.

To control hazardous materials, follow these steps: 1) Identify the hazardous materials in your workplace 2) Implement proper storage and handling procedures 3) Train employees on the safe use of hazardous materials 4) Have emergency response plans in place for spills or exposure incidents.

Class 3, Flammable liquid, has a flash point of not more than 60 degrees C.
Yes if it contains alcohol, a flammable liquid (hazmat class 3).
