Combustible Liquids (Examples: alcohols‚ esters‚ ethers‚ ketones) Vapors from flammable and combustible liquids can mix with air and burn if they contact an ignition source. Possible ignition sources include hot electrical wires‚ hot surfaces‚ open flames‚ hot particles and embers‚ and sparks. The lowest temperature at which a liquid releases enough vapor to start burning is called the flash point. The flash point is what distinguishes a flammable liquid from a combustible liquid.
