Flammability:
Chlorine is not flammable, but it reacts explosively or forms explosive compounds with many common substances.
Flashpoint:
Chlorine is not combustible, but it enhances combustion of other substances.

Yeah, the problem is that everything around it in this case is flammable.

a sprinkler head malfunctioned around 5 a.m. Sunday at the BioLab plant in Conyers. That caused water to mix with a water-reactive chemical, which produced a plume of chemicals.


Why store water-reactive chemicals near water sprinklers?

Pool Chlorine. The one in Lake Charles burned during Laura. We built their new warehouse and did some panel work for the new unit. That stuff catches fire when introduced to water I believe..... go figure.
