What is the main composition of naphtha lighter fluid.
After looking around for a while I couldn't really find an exact result. After looking at the msds of the lighter fluid(ronsonol brand), it says
aliphatic hydrocarbons or naphtha. I assume it's a composition of pentane, hexane and heptane.

It will be a mixture of those and their isomers and also things like methyl cyclopentane.

Ain't no n-pentane, n-hexane or n-heptane in there.......... Not in theory anyways
