|Section2= |Section3= |Section4= |Section5= }} Hexadecane (also called cetane) is an alkane hydrocarbon with the chemical formula C16H34. Hexadecane consists of a chain of 16 carbon atoms, with three hydrogen atoms bonded to the two end carbon atoms, and two hydrogens bonded to each of the 14 other carbon atoms. ''Cetane'' is often used as a shorthand for cetane number, a measure of the detonation of diesel fuel. Cetane ignites very easily under compression; for this reason, it is assigned a cetane number of 100, and serves as a reference for other fuel mixtures. It has one of the lowest octane ratings, at <−30.〔(Petroleum and Coal ), Purdue University〕 ==See also== *Cetane number *Cetane index *Isocetane *Higher alkanes ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「hexadecane」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
