Neoprene can withstand higher heat than most natural rubbers. The primary advantage of using neoprene in flame or high heat situations is that instead of dripping and thus constantly exposing fresh fuel, neoprene chars over and puts itself out.
Dupont recommends a maximum temp of 392 F for neoprene.

It is not completely flame resistant, but it is more flame resistant than most other materials- cotton burns extremely fast and synthetic fabrics melt.
Neoprene is one of the chemical compounds that can be found in a neo-laptop. Neoprene usually exhibits good chemical stability and maintains flexibility over a wide temperature range.
Stand it on a heat-resistant pad... When not in use - turn the sleeve so that the yellow flame is visible... Keep all flammable items away from it.
the yellow/safety flame - thats the one that burns less the blue flame - burns THE ROARING FLAME - that one burns a lot and you can tell the difference from the blue flame because it makes a roaring sound
if you are talking about what flame to use on a Bunsen burner than the yellow flame is to make sure that everyone knows that there is a flame but the blue flame (less visible) is used as the hotter flame and the better one.
