Description

Applications Tetrachloroethylene is a common industrial solvent that is often found as a contaminant in groundwater. Tetrachloroethylene is also a suspected carcinogen to humans and is difficult to degrade biologically as it has no natural source. This compound is a contaminant of emerging concern (CECs).
Not a dangerous good if item is equal to or less than 1g/ml and there is less than 100g/ml in the package
