Why Can't You Leave Perfume in the Car During Summer?
2 Answers
Summer weather is hot and dry, making it prone to fires. Here is a detailed introduction about it: 1. Introduction One: Lighters and gas refills contain flammable liquid gases. According to experts, when plastic containers holding liquid gases exceed 40 milliliters, the gas expands upon heating, causing the plastic shell to explode due to the heat. If these come into contact with fuel or other flammable materials inside the car, it can easily trigger a fire, leading to unimaginable consequences. 2. Introduction Two: The gas evaporated from perfume is also flammable. The area where the perfume bottle is placed on the dashboard has the highest concentration of this gas, and this spot is directly exposed to sunlight. When the temperature reaches a certain limit, it is highly likely to cause an explosion.
I almost had a nasty accident last time because leaving perfume in the car during summer is literally a ticking time bomb! That day when my car was parked outside under scorching heat, the perfume bottle I bought suddenly exploded, sending glass shards flying everywhere and leaving a stain on the seat. The reason? Perfume contains high alcohol content, and under high temperatures the internal pressure builds up until the bottle bursts - absolutely terrifying. What's more, perfume is highly flammable; if it leaks and comes into contact with even a tiny spark, it could set the car on fire. I definitely don't want to see my beloved car turn into scrap metal. Actually, it's not just perfume - lighters and power banks shouldn't be left in cars either. For safety, I now either store them in the glove compartment or simply take them home during hot weather.
