Octane, All Isomers Page 1 Chapter 1 Summary Tables and Figure Table 1 for air monitoring and Table 2 for air permitting provide a summary of health- and welfare-based values from an acute and chronic evaluation of two isomers of octane (n-octane and isooctane). Please refer to Section 1.6.2 of the TCEQ Guidelines to Develop Toxicity Factors (TCEQ 2015a) for an explanation of reference values (ReVs) and effects screening levels (ESLs) used for review of ambient air monitoring data and air permitting. Table 3 provides summary information on physical/chemical data for n-octane (hereafter octane) and 2,2,4-trimethylpentane (hereafter isooctane). Table 1 Air Monitoring Comparison
