Instead, they tend to be based on less toxic solvents such as n-hexane and n-heptane.

Because heptane is highly flammable, distillation of resins containing it is very dangerous.

Also, care needs be taken to avoid heat sources, as n-heptane and n-hexane are highly flammable.

Other chemicals included heptane, octane and diethylbenzene but information on their toxicity is limited.

They will ignite pans of heptane, a liquid fuel that burns hot enough to simulate full burning within a closed space.

To help understand how flames behave and burn in space, FLEX researchers ignite a small drop of either heptane or methanol.

- N-Heptane is the straight-chain alkane with the chemical formula H3C(CH2)5CH3 or C7H16. When used as a test fuel component in anti-knock test engines, a 100% heptane fuel is the zero point of the octane rating scale (the 100 point is a 100% iso-octane). ...
- Any of the nine isomers of the saturated aliphatic hydrocarbon C7H16, obtained from petroleum, especially n-heptane (CH3(CH2)5CH3)
