Under two circumstances:
if it will explode after applying the necessary amount of initiating energy to it

or if it will form an explosive when mixed with other chemicals

When is a chemical or solution comsidered an explosive hazard in millimeters?

A chemical or solution is considered an explosive hazard in millimeters when it has a high sensitivity to ignition or detonation due to its composition and characteristics. Certain chemicals or solutions may exhibit explosive properties when exposed to heat, shock, or friction and can potentially detonate if not handled properly. It is important to assess the explosive hazard potential of any substance based on its properties, reactivity, and known safety information.

The vapor pressure for a product can be found on the material safety data sheet when is a chemical or solution considered an explosive hazard?

A chemical or solution is considered an explosive hazard if it has a vapor pressure that is high enough to allow it to form an explosive mixture with air at ambient temperatures. Generally, materials that can produce flammable vapor concentrations in air at temperatures below 100°F (37.8°C) and have a flash point below that temperature are deemed hazardous. Additionally, substances that can undergo rapid exothermic reactions or produce gas under certain conditions also pose explosive risks. Always refer to the material safety data sheet (MSDS) for specific information related to the chemical in question.


Is a lighter considered an explosive?

No, a lighter is not considered an explosive. It generates a flame through a chemical reaction, typically between a fuel source and a spark. However, it does not explode or produce rapid expansion of gases like traditional explosives.
