Description of key information

2,2-Dimethylbutane is reported to be a clear colourless liquid at ambient temperatures.

Supporting data is available for Hydrocarbons, C6, isoalkanes, <5% n-hexane and Isohexane and this data is used for read across to 2,2 -dimethylbutane.

Hydrocarbons, C6, isoalkanes, <5% n-hexane is a clear colourless liquid with a slight odour at 20°C.
