(b) Flammable Chemicals:
Note: - The flammability shall be determined by tests or by calculation in accordance with methods adopted by International Standards Organisation ISO Number10156 of 1990 or by Bureau of Indian Standards ISI Number 1446 of 1985.
(iii) very highly flammable liquids: chemicals which have a flash point lower than or equal to 230C and initial boiling point higher than 350C.
(iv) highly flammable liquids: chemicals which have a flash point lower than or equal to 600C but higher than 230C.
(v) flammable liquids: chemicals which have a flash point higher than 60oC but lower than 900 C.
(c) Explosives: explosives means a solid or liquid or pyrotechnic substance (or a mixture of substances) or an article.
(a) which is in itself capable by chemical reaction of producing gas at such a temperature and pressure and at such a speed as to cause damage to the surroundings;
(b) which is designed to produce an effect by heat, light, sound, gas or smoke or a combination of these as the result of non-detonative self sustaining exothermic chemical reaction.
