Hi all
May I know what the value of evaporation rate (ER) for n-hexane? I wanna to calculate the ventilation rate, Q. At safety data sheet (SDS) is also not provide the ER information
ii) Required Ventilation Rate Q actual
Parameter : n-Hexane, CH3(CH2)4CH3
MW : 86.17g/mol
SG : 0.657 g/cm3
ER :
C (ppm) : 50
Effective Ventilation Rate, Q = G/C
=
Hi Azlan,
I think you can find more information from the below link, which shows the relative evaporation rate of Hexane is 8.3.

The NIH NLM NCBI's PubChem record for Hexane has a large amount of information on the chemical and physical properties. https://pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/compound/Hexane
