Abstract

Classification implies similarity of the members within a class; however, there is still variation within a class. Some classes have more variation within them than other classes. Classes with broader class characteristics tend to have more variation. Classes with more chemically complex ignitable liquids have more variation than classes with simpler chemical composition. This chapter will provide insight into the reasons for variation within ASTM E1618 classes of ignitable liquids and present examples demonstrating the variation.
