combustible materials

Combustible materials are substances that can catch fire and burn when exposed to heat or flames. They include materials like wood, paper, fabrics, certain plastics, and some chemicals. These materials have a carbon-based composition that allows them to ignite and sustain combustion easily. The level of flammability varies—some ignite quickly, while others require higher temperatures or longer exposure. Understanding which materials are combustible is essential for fire safety, storage, and handling, as they can significantly influence the risk and severity of fires in homes, workplaces, and industrial settings.
