What are the ignition points of gasoline and diesel?
1 Answers
The ignition point of gasoline is between 410° and 430°, while diesel's ignition point is around 220°. Below is a related introduction to the differences between gasoline and diesel: 1. Different compositions: Diesel is a light petroleum product, mainly composed of complex hydrocarbons (carbon atom count approximately 10~22) mixtures. Gasoline primarily consists of C5~C12 aliphatic hydrocarbons and cycloalkanes, along with a certain amount of aromatic hydrocarbons. 2. Different uses: Diesel is mainly used in diesel engines for vehicles and ships. Gasoline is classified into 89, 92, and 95 octane ratings, primarily serving as fuel for spark-ignition internal combustion engines in automobiles.
