Flash, fire and autoignition points
In the last few weeks we have talked to a large number of new customers about one issue: flash point.
More often these days potential customers call in asking for a high flash point fluid. Sometimes it’s driven by an operating temperature change and subsequent requirement for a higher flash point. Other times there’s a corporate mandate specifying a minimum flash point.
Each situation is unique, but they usually all have one common thread — a need for clarification on the technical phrases flash point, fire point and autoignition.
For more information on these terms, check out our technical paper Understanding Flash, Fire and Auto Ignition Points.
