Short title	Treated material ignites later and forms char before protection fails, while untreated material burns earlier.
Image title	Two qualitative timelines under the same exposure, without numerical times. Untreated: a short heating period, then earlier ignition and burning. Treated: a longer heating period and delayed ignition, then a hatched period in which a protective residue (char) limits burning, until the protection is exhausted and full burning follows. A note warns that cracking, detachment or bending can end protection early.
