I don't know off hand; I would have to Google it. What I would be expecting to find is an INITIAL boiling point and a boiling RANGE. Also, I would not be surprised to find a set of boiling data for the several different seasonal blends that are sold. For example, the so-called "winter" blend has a higher composition of the lighter fractions, such as propane and butane, and will have a relatively low initial boiling point. I suspect there are also regionally specific blends. For example, the hydrocarbon volatility issue is more critical in California, where smog is a major problem.
