In IUPAC nomenclature, however, hexane is the unbranched isomer (n-hexane); the other four isomers are named as methylated derivatives of pentane and butane. IUPAC also uses the term as the root of many compounds with a linear six-carbon backbone, such as 2-methylhexane (C7H16), which is also called isoheptane.
Dentin is the substance between enamel or cementum and the pulp chamber. It is secreted by the odontoblasts of the dental pulp. The formation of dentin is known as dentinogenesis. The porous, yellow-hued material is made up of 70% inorganic materials, 20% organic materials, and 10% water by weight.
The most important job of tooth enamel if to produce Dentin. Dentin is a calcified tissue that serves as the second layer of the tooth. It is located directly above the pulp chamber, and it is normally covered by tooth enamel. Dentin makes up a majority of the toothâs structure.
