Will Alcohol in a Car Spontaneously Combust?
1 Answers
Sealed medical alcohol placed in a car will not spontaneously combust, but there are still certain safety hazards, so it's best not to keep alcohol in the vehicle. Here are the details: 1. Reason: The concentration of medical alcohol is generally 75% or 95%. The ignition point of pure alcohol is 363 degrees Celsius, and the lower the alcohol concentration, the higher the ignition point. Therefore, under normal temperatures, alcohol will not spontaneously combust. 2. Precautions: There are certain safety risks associated with carrying alcohol in a private car, so it is recommended to avoid carrying it if possible. If alcohol must be carried, attention must be paid to its concentration and quantity, as alcohol is a flammable and explosive substance. Once certain concentration and quantity thresholds are reached, it constitutes illegal activity.
