Executive summary:

A value of > 200 °C for autoflammability was extrapolated for Hydrocarbons, C6-C7, n-alkanes, isoalkanes, cyclics, <5% n-hexane from published material: Chemical Engineering (1972).

Description of key information

 The minimum auto flammability temperature for Hydrocarbons, C6-C7, n-alkanes, isoalkanes, cyclics, <5% n-hexane is >200°C. 

Key value for chemical safety assessment

Additional information

All possible grades within this substance description have an auto flammability value higher than 200°C. Values are extrapolated from published data (Chemical Engineering 1972) by DHC (2009).
