Dried Superglue -- flammable?

Is dried superglue flammable? I am using superglue to deposit abrasive particles in a groove which runs the length of an aluminum joint. The joint is welded using a solid-state process (no melting). Should I be concerned about flammability? I have used wood cement glue before with no problem, but this is my first try with superglue.

This sounds like something that is better to test yourself then ask around. There are lots of different glues that might have different properties. Test a few known "bad ideas" too to make sure your test is valid.
