The Chemistry Of Fire Reel-3
Laboratory experiments are shown to explain and describe ignition temperatures and illustrate how a fire is started when there is fuel vapors, oxygen, and ignition. Animation is used to show how a fire can be caused by static electricity or an oily rag. Shipboard fires can be caused by bomb explosions, shrapnel piercing fuel lines, and ignition of paint and bedding.
