A seemingly small lighter
When it accidentally exploded
Just a few seconds
Its power can’t be underestimated

A little lighter hides a big crisis
A little lighter
Why is it so lethal
If you accidentally fall into the hot pot
How long will the lighter explode
After the explosion
How should we react
Under what circumstances will the lighter explode

Our common plastic lighters
Is to pass combustible gas through high pressure
From gas to liquid
And injected into the lighter housing
Therefore, it is always under high pressure
High temperature, exposure, external force collision and extrusion, etc
Will increase the internal pressure and lead to explosion
The liquid vaporizes at the moment of bursting
Knowledge! This explosion is a physical reaction!
Even some lighters are at room temperature
It will explode!

When encountering open fire or burst to produce Mars
The explosion of the lighter will form deflagration

It is known that the boiling point of water is 100 ℃
The boiling point of oil is above 200 ℃
So the lighter fell into the hot pot
Even if there is a “water” explosion, it will still happen
Simply put, it means thermal expansion and cold contraction at high temperature
So when using and saving lighters
There are many things you must know
Storage precautions
01 do not place lighters near hair gel, mousse and other articles to prevent explosion and fire.
02 do not place the lighter near the stove to prevent explosion caused by high temperature. Do not place the lighter in a place with a large number of fine particles
03 place with micro dust, cotton wadding, flour and other dust to prevent explosion caused by combustible dust.
04 do not place the lighter on the windowsill in direct sunlight in high temperature season.
05 lighters should not be placed near wine. Some wine at some heights may explode.
06 do not put lighters near fireworks to prevent explosion and fire,
07 lighters shall not be placed in the vehicle to prevent ignition of the vehicle after the lighter is detonated at high temperature.
08 when eating hot pot or barbecue, it’s best not to smoke, so as to avoid the explosion caused by the lighter falling into the pot
Precautions for lighter use:
1. Do not use damp lighters: pay attention to whether the lighters are damp. Damp lighters are scrapped and can not be used.
2. Do not drop the lighter: the lighter cannot be dropped. If it is suddenly broken, it may explode due to the rapid expansion of gas.
3. Do not use a lighter to light a gas stove: try not to use a lighter to light a gas stove. This is a very dangerous behavior. It is easy to burn yourself when you are close to it.
4. High temperature exposure: if the lighter has been exposed to high temperature, – it must not be used again. It is likely to produce a large number of sparks, resulting in burns and even explosion.
5. The leaking lighter cannot be reused: if you feel a smell of engine oil before use, it may leak. You can drop a drop of water on the lighter. If it bubbles, it must leak.
