NAME: acetaldehyde, ethanal
FORMULA: CH3CHO
AUTHOR(YEAR): LakeHarrison(1959)
T: 294K
λ: 169.5-181.7nm
BIBLIOGRAPHY: J.S. Lake and A.J. Harrison, "Absorption of acyclic oxygen compounds in the vacuum ultraviolet. III. Acetone and acetaldehyde", J. Chem. Phys. 30, 361-362 (1959); DOI: 10.1063/1.1729955
COMMENTS: The spectrum of flowing vapor samples has been photographed using a hydrogen discharge lamp and a fluorite prism vacuum spectrograph

Molar extinction coefficients for the principal absorption bands (Table I) have been converted to absorption cross sections (conversion factor 3.8235×10-21)
