Mr. Jerry Ulrich Four Star Chemical 5701 South Compton Avenue Los Angeles, CA 90011
Dear Jerry:
As we discussed on the phone, this letter is to provide you with
additional information regarding the potential for personnel exposure to ethylene oxide when handling Vista's ALFONIC
ethoxylated alcohols.
I have attached a statement that Vista
distributed to direct customers that I believe will provide you the
information you need.
As we discussed, the amount of residual ethylene oxide in the product you receive is anticipated to be less than the amount present at the time of product shipment.
During transportation and handling the small amount of residual
ethylene oxide present dissipates to some degree.
The amount
present in your formulated product should be directly determined to
assure accuracy.
Sincerely,
Thomas G. Grumbles, C.I.H.
