Yujing, A. Mellouki Title: The near-UV absorption cross sections for several ketones Journal/Source: J. Photochem. Photobiol. A: Chem., 134, 31-36, (2000); http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/S1010-6030(00)00243-4 Data: table, diagram Energy/Wavelength range: 240 - 350 nm Resolution: 1 nm Temperature: 298 K Temperature dependence: no Pressure/Concentration: Phase: vapor pH: Comments: The UV absorption cross sections of acetone, 2-butanone, 2,4-dimethyl-3-pentanone, 4-methyl-2-pentanone, and 5-methyl-2-hexanone are reported. The absorption spectra were measured by using a diode array spectrometer over the wavelength range 240-350 nm at room temperature (298±2) K.
