Chlorinated hydrocarbon solvents
Clinics in Occupational and Environmental Medicine, 2004Chlorinated hydrocarbon solvents, such as trichloroethylene and 1,1,1-trichloroethane, have been used widely in many industries because of their ready ability to dissolve oils, greases, and other materials, their low acute toxicity, and their non-flammability.

Combustion of chlorinated hydrocarbons [PDF]
Thermal destruction by incineration of chlorinated hydrocarbons (CHC) is an attractive method for the volume reduction and ultimate disposal of wastes. The present paper provides further insight into the fundamental properties of CHC for understanding the mechanism, rates of oxidation and other combustion characteristics, e.g., flame stability ...

Chlorinated Hydrocarbons in Infertile Women
Environmental Research, 1999This study was conducted to investigate the hypothesis that chlorinated hydrocarbons (CHC) may affect fertility in women. In 489 infertile women, CHC levels were measured in whole blood. Different anamnestic and clinical parameters were obtained or investigated in order to detect possible associations to CHC concentrations.

Decomposition of Chlorinated Hydrocarbons: A Review
American Industrial Hygiene Association Journal, 1972An up-to-date review and criticism of reports on the decomposition of chlorinated hydrocarbons led to the conclusion that temperature and metal surface were prime factors in the production of phosgene, hydrogen chloride, chlorine and other decomposition products.

Chlorinated Hydrocarbons in Cetaceans
Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada, 1975DDT, PCBs, chlordane, and dieldrin levels were measured in blubber of 18 cetaceans, including humpback, sperm, dense-beaked, Atlantic, and Pacific pilot whales, and five species of dolphins. All had significant residue levels, ranging from 1.1 to 1023 ppm ΣDDT (wet weight basis), and 0.7–147 ppm PCBs. These levels are high enough to justify efforts to

Estrogenlc activities of chlorinated hydrocarbons
Journal of Toxicology and Environmental Health, 1978Some DDT analogs are estrogenic, particularly o,p'-DDT, which comprises approximately 15-20% of the commercial DDT mixture. Whether this compound or its metabolites are active has not been established. In fact, the data obtained thus far are more confusing than enlightening.

Chlorinated hydrocarbons: estrogens and antiestrogens
Toxicology Letters, 19952,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) and related compounds bind to the intracellular aryl hydrocarbon (Ah) receptor and induce a diverse spectrum of biochemical and toxic responses. Ah receptor agonists also modulate several endocrine pathways, and research in several laboratories has shown that TCDD and related compounds inhibit estrogen (E2 ...

ChemInform Abstract: CATALYSED DESTRUCTION OF CHLORINATED HYDROCARBONS [PDF]
AbstractChlorinated hydrocarbons (CH2Cl2, CHCl3, CCl4, C2H2Cl2, C2HCl3 and C2Cl4) are efficiently converted to HCl and CO2 over Pt/γ‐Al2O3 catalysts on which a hydrocarbon fuel is being oxidised catalytically at about 450°C: conversions generally exceed 95% if the catalyst contains 0.8% or more Pt.
