    [ noun ]

    <noun.substance>


    Kerosene \Ker"o*sene`\, n. [Gr. ? wax.]
    An oil used for illuminating purposes, formerly obtained from
    the distillation of mineral wax, bituminous shale, etc., and
    hence called also {coal oil}. It is now produced in immense
    quantities, chiefly by the distillation and purification of
    petroleum. It consists chiefly of several hydrocarbons of the
    methane series, having from 10 to 16 carbon atoms in each
    molecule, and having a higher boiling point (175 - 325[deg]
    C) than gasoline or the petroleum ethers, and a lower boling
    point than the oils.
