Description of key information

There is no data available for Hydrocarbons, C15-C16, n-alkanes, <2% aromatics. However, data is available for a structural analogue, Pentadecane and presented in the dossier. This data is read across to Hydrocarbons, C15-C16, n-alkanes, <2% aromatics based on analogue read across and a discussion and report on the read across strategy is provided as an attachment in IUCLID Section 13.

The self-ignition temperature for Pentadecane is above 200°C.

Key value for chemical safety assessment
