,91 the only measure of the fire and explosion hazards. Other important factors, |h as its minimum ignition temperature, flammable limits, temperature range ^flammability, density of the vapor, and chemical stability, are also of marked portance.
The flash point is determined by "closed"- or "open"-cup methods. In either .e a given volume of the liquid is heated in a container at a definite rate, and fiodically a test flame or spark is passed across the surface of the liquid. The emperature at which, on ignition, a flame passes across the surface of the liquid the container is taken as the flash point. The container is open to the air in open-cup method, while in the closed-cup method the space above the liquid hovered. A small opening is.uncovered only at the time the test ,flame is intro-
Lower values are obtained by the closed-cup method and it .gives more Urate indications of flammable-vapor hazards for a given temperature. The h points tabulated in Table 3 are for the closed-cup method. . ^

Combustible gases, such as methane, hydrogen, and acetylene, when mixed !|h air in explosive proportions, are but slightly affected as to explosion hazards
