Acute exposure is a sudden event that occurs in a short period of time.
Chronic exposure occurs over a long period of time.
Benzene is a confirmed human carcinogen.
Carbon Tetrachloride is a confirmed human carcinogen.
When working around Benzene in the T-90 area, you must wear a positive pressure atmosphere-supplying respirator.
Carbon Tetrachloride, Hexachlorobenzene, Hexachlorobutadiene, Hexachloroethane, 1,1,2-Trichloroethane, and 1,1,2,2-Tetrachloroethane are all toxic through skin contact.
Approximately 5 to 10 mils of Carbon Tetrachloride is the average lethal dose for an adult human.
The odors of most chlorinated hydrocarbons are not markedly unpleasant and therefore are easily respired with no noticeable discomfort.
The odor of chemicals normally provides adequate warning of
overexposure.
<-
Inhalation is the primary' exposure route linked with exposure.
