Is it safe to place perfume in a car?
1 Answers
Many people enjoy placing perfume in their cars, but this practice poses safety hazards. When exposed to direct sunlight or high temperatures inside the car, perfume can potentially explode. During summer, elevated temperatures cause increased gas buildup in perfume bottles. If the bottle opening only allows a small amount of gas to escape, the internal pressure rises, potentially causing low-quality bottles to rupture. Therefore, it's advisable to fill car perfume bottles with a small amount of perfume, leaving sufficient space for gas evaporation. Additionally, screw the cap on but avoid overtightening it, ensuring slight ventilation for perfume evaporation to prevent issues. More information about car perfumes is as follows: 1. Spray and Evaporation Types: Car perfumes mainly come in two structural principles: one is the spray type, similar to regular body perfumes, where external pressure releases the perfume. The other is the evaporation type, relying on natural perfume evaporation to emit fragrance. 2. Different Safety Levels: Spray-type perfumes are relatively more hazardous as they have only one spray nozzle. If the nozzle gets blocked and temperatures rise, accelerating perfume evaporation, it may lead to explosions. Evaporation-type perfumes, being non-sealed, have a lower likelihood of exploding. Furthermore, some small manufacturers add excessive alcohol to perfumes to cut costs, making them more prone to expansion and explosion under high temperatures. Therefore, considering all factors, it is recommended that car owners opt for evaporation-type perfumes when purchasing car perfumes for enhanced safety.
