Why can't the ink burn, but the ink in the ballpoint pen is flammable?

Ink does not burn, and there is basically no change and no reaction after heating. The main raw materials of ink are soot, rubber, additives and solutions, which are generally machined. There are many kinds of soot, including various mineral plants and animal raw materials, which are formed by combustion or thermal decomposition.

In addition to animal glue, vegetable gum (Arabic gum) or various synthetic gums such as acrylic gum and polyol resin are also used as glue. Additives include various stabilizers, penetrants, wetting agents, preservatives, essences, etc. Ink is dangerous mainly because it contains many flammable components and solvents such as toluene, xylene and butanone. Therefore, ink belongs to the third category of dangerous goods, flammable liquids.

Because ink belongs to dangerous goods, individuals can't transport it, nor can logistics enterprises with general qualification certificates. Ink transportation enterprises must have the qualification certificate of dangerous goods transportation, and relevant personnel must have the qualification certificate.

Ink is flammable, and the solvent in it is volatile. Pay attention to the ventilation of the carriage during transportation to avoid transportation in hot weather. Vehicles are required to have sunshade facilities and stay away from fire sources and heat sources. Transport personnel are not allowed to carry kindling or smoke near vehicles. During transportation, the ink should be placed neatly and in a fixed position to prevent collision and ink leakage.
