We present a measurement of the slope parameter α for the η → 3π 0 decay, with the KLOE experiment at the DAΦNE φ-factory, based on a background free sample of ∼ 17 millions η mesons produced in φ radiative decays. By fitting the event density in the Dalitz plot we determine α = −0.0301 ± 0.0035 stat +0.0022 −0.0035 syst . The result is in agreement with recent measurements from hadro-and photo-production experiments.
