Hmm good question I use ethanol (Pure Alcohol) fairly regularly and that is pretty flammable. Nothing that combusts spontaneously on contact with air though. My work just isn’t that flammable I’m afraid as for my experiments to work things need to be very stable. The XFEL (X-ray Free Electron Laser) that I work with has been used recently to heat a sheet of Aluminium to over 1 million Kelvin (Just under 1 million degrees celcius) so it’s pretty hot stuff if you’ll pardon the pun.
