Description

Tridecane is an alkane hydrocarbon with the molecular formula C13H28. It is a colorless liquid with a faint odor. Tridecane is found in petroleum and is used as a solvent. It is also used in the production of synthetic lubricants and other chemicals. Tridecane is a component of kerosene and diesel fuel. It is a flammable liquid and should be handled with care.'

tridecane : A straight chain alkane containing 13 carbon atoms. It forms a component of the essential oils isolated from plants such as Abelmoschus esculentus.
