EC number: 293-262-2 | CAS number: 91053-00-8 A complex combination of hydrocarbons obtained from distillation of the butadiene-free C4 fraction of a naphtha steam-cracking process. It consists predominantly of olefinic hydrocarbons having carbon numbers of C8, C12, C16 and C20 and boiling in the range of approximately 95°C to 120°C (203°F to 248°F).

Description of key information
The auto-ignition temperatures of this category have been measured in the range 215°C (C12) - 220°C (C16).
In a guideline, proprietary study (Evonik Oxeno 2008) the auto ignition temperature for tributene was measured as 215°C. This study is non-GLP but follows a standard guideline and is considered reliable and suitable for use as a key study for this endpoint. A supporting study (Aqura2006) reported the auto ignition temperature of tetrabutene to be 220°C. This data is considered to be representative of the category.
The mean of the auto-ignition temperature values for the category is 217.5°Cand this has been used to complete the 'key value for chemical safety assessment'.
