Physical properties
Clear, watery, flammable liquid with a mild, pleasant, characteristic odor similar to 2-butanone or
the pentanones. Experimentally determined detection and recognition odor threshold concentrations
were 1.3 mg/m3 (270 ppbv) and 5.2 mg/m3 (1.1 ppmv), respectively (Hellman and Small,
1974).
