Convenient and easy-to-use sunscreen spray
It is a must-have item for many people to protect themselves from the sun in summer
However, it was not long ago
A 20-year-old girl in Zhejiang
Due to improper use of sunscreen spray
Emergency hospitalization......
It turned out that the woman was using sunscreen spray
Talking while spraying a large area
Didn't hold your breath
As a result, I coughed non-stop just after spraying
And it's getting more and more uncomfortable
Go to the hospital 1 hour later
Examination report suggests "white lung"
Hospitalization is required
Before that
CCTV News has also reported it
A young man of 20 years old
"White lung" caused by inadvertent inhalation of sunscreen spray
aroused the attention of many netizens
And that's not all
This summer sunscreen artifact
Improper use can also "ignite the body"
↓↓↓
On August 10, 2022, when a father in Shenyang, Liaoning Province sprayed his child with sunscreen spray before going out, because he didn't notice that the child was playing with a lighter, the sunscreen spray turned into a "flamethrower" in seconds, and it exploded instantly. Fortunately, after examination and treatment, the child is fine.
The following set of experiments allows you:
See how dangerous sunscreen sprays can be
Sunscreen spray can burn when exposed to an open flame
The firefighters prepared two sunscreen sprays
Spray into the air one after the other
Then light the lighter
When an open flame is approaching
Both sprays burned instantly
Sunscreen spray sprayed on clothing can also burn
Firefighters put sunscreen spray
Sprayed on the fire extinguishing suit
After about 5 seconds, take out the lighter and ignite it
The clothes burned immediately
And the fire was fierce
so
If the sunscreen spray is sprayed on the human skin
Does it burn when exposed to an open flame?
The answer is: Yes!
Firefighters use chicken thighs to simulate human skin
Spray sunscreen spray onto the chicken thighs
Chicken thighs sprayed with sunscreen spray
Instantly ignited by an open flame
Most of the sunscreen spray ingredients on the market contain combustibles such as ethanol, butane, and isobutane, which will burn when exposed to fire. When a large amount of this sunscreen spray is applied to a person's skin, it will catch fire when it encounters an open flame.
But spray sunscreen spray on the chicken thighs
After a minute, light it with a lighter
Found after a period of volatilization
The sunscreen spray was not ignited by an open flame
This is because sunscreen sprays contain flammable substances that are volatile. Although there are certain fire hazards in sunscreen spray, as long as you pay attention to staying away from fire sources and avoiding high temperatures and impacts, fire accidents can be avoided to a certain extent.

Antiperspirants
In the summer heat, many people like to use products such as antiperspirant lotion. Experiments have proved that antiperspirant lotion is prone to ignition when it comes into contact with an open flame. Therefore, antiperspirant products with flammable and explosive labels printed on the packaging should not be sprayed on open flames or other ignition sources.
#
Hair styling supplies
Most of the ingredients in hairspray are combustible, and most of them are compression-filled, so hairspray is prone to explosion when exposed to heat. In addition, the hairspray spray spreads far beyond expectations, and perhaps a stress-relieving essential oil stove next to it, or even a cigarette, will turn the hairspray in your hand into a time bomb.

Nail polish, nail polish remover
Nail polish contains 70%~80% volatile solvents, and the nitrocellulose in its composition is easy to spontaneously ignite in the air. It is recommended to use nail polish in a ventilated, spacious environment, away from fire, to avoid starting a fire. Remember to keep it in a cool place when not in use.
#
Perfumes, air fresheners
Perfume contains a certain amount of ethanol (i.e. alcohol), so in order to avoid accidents, do not touch the open flame when wearing perfume. The main components of the filled air freshener are propane and butane, both of which are flammable and explosive gases, hot in summer, the temperature in the car is very high, it is not recommended to put it in the car, the car is exposed to the sun outside, it is easy to cause spontaneous combustion and explosion.
#
Toilet water, toner
Most of these products contain alcohol, which is one of the reasons why they feel cool and refreshing to use. Therefore, it should also be kept away from open flames when using.
Summer is the time of high incidence of fires
Do not use sprays such as insecticides, insect repellents, etc
Contact with an open flame
Also do not apply these sprays
Keep it in a high-temperature, closed environment
so as not to cause a fire
