Measurement
Autoignition Temperature: 313°C
The atmospheric pressure at which this result was determined is not stated.
Description of key information
The auto-ignition temperature of hexan-1-ol is 313°C at 1013 hPa.
Key value for chemical safety assessment
- Autoflammability / Self-ignition temperature at 101 325 Pa:
- 313 °C
Additional information
The auto-ignition temperature of 313°C at 1013 hPa was determined in accordance with ASTM E 659. The result is considered to be reliable.
It is supported by a value of 290°C, taken from a source of hazard reference data (the online International Chemical Safety Cards of WHO IPCS).
Discussion of trends in the Category of C6-24 linear and essentially-linear aliphatic alcohols:
As carbon number increases, auto-ignition temperature generally decreases. Molecular weight is higher and intermolecular forces in the substance are all higher.
