    The document provides information on the ignition and melting points of various materials when exposed to heat, including woods, papers, plastics, metals, liquids, and other combustible materials. It lists the temperature ranges at which these materials will slowly char, ignite, melt, or change color. For example, it notes that wood will slowly char at 120-150°C, paper will ignite at 218-246°C, plastics have a wide range of melting and ignition points from 49-560°C depending on the type, and gasoline has a flash point of -43°C and ignition temperature of 257°C.
