Decane, a 10-carbon n-alkane and one of the highest vapor phase constituents of jet propellent-8 , was selected to represent the semivolatile fraction for the initial development of a physiologically based pharmacokinetic (PBPK) model for JP-8. Rats were exposed to decane vapors at time-weighted average concentrations of 1200, 781, or 273 ppm ...

Decane is an alkane hydrocarbon with the chemical formula C 10 H 22. Although 75 structural isomers are possible for decane, the term usually refers to the normal-decane (" n -decane"), with the formula CH 3 (CH 2 ) 8 CH 3 .
