    [7] [8] Many cooking oils have smoke points above standard home cooking temperatures: [9] Pan frying (sauté) on stove top heat: 120 °C (248 °F) Deep frying: 160–180 °C (320–356 °F) Oven baking: Average of 180 °C (356 °F) Smoke point decreases at a different pace in different oils. [10]

    Kerosene is sometimes recommended as a folk remedy for killing head lice, but health agencies warn against this as it can cause burns and serious illness. A kerosene shampoo can even be fatal if fumes are inhaled. [64] [65] People can be exposed to kerosene in the workplace by breathing it in, swallowing it, skin contact, and eye contact.

    It stays relatively hot rich of stoichiometry because it contains its own oxidant. However, continual running of an engine on nitromethane will eventually melt the piston and/or cylinder because of this higher temperature. Effects of dissociation on adiabatic flame temperature. In real world applications, complete combustion does not typically ...

    It was replaced in the late 19th century by cheaper, more efficient, and longer-lasting kerosene. [26] Burning fluid and camphine were the dominant replacements for whale oil until the arrival of kerosene. [27] In the United Kingdom, whale oil was used in toolmaking machinery as a high-quality lubricant. [28]

    The autoignition temperature or self-ignition temperature, often called spontaneous ignition temperature or minimum ignition temperature (or shortly ignition temperature) and formerly also known as kindling point, of a substance is the lowest temperature at which it spontaneously ignites in a normal atmosphere without an external source of ignition, such as a flame or spark.
