Flash point definition

Flash point means the lowest temperature of a liquid at which its vapours form a flammable mixture with air;
Flash point means the minimum temperature at which a liquid will give off sufficient vapor to form an ignitable mixture with air near the surface of the liquid or within the test vessel.
Flash point means the minimum temperature at which a flammable or combustible liquid will give off sufficient flam- mable vapors to form an ignitable mixture with air near the surface of the liquid or within the vessel which contains the liquid.
