CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL PROPERTIES
| Physical Description | Cyclohexyl acetate appears as a colorless liquid. Flash point 136 °F. Slightly less dense than water and insoluble in water. Vapors are much heavier than air and may be narcotic in high concentrations. May emit acrid smoke and irritating fumes when heated to high temperatures. Used as a solvent and in making rubber. |
