>all of these compounds are carcinogenic, especially benzene and compounds containing the benzene ring… in concentrations of 1% to 2% benzene in air, it is fatal due to respiratory failure,
pure unadulterated FEAR PRON bullshit from illiterate tard.
where do you get your chem safety data, the state of california?
benzene is fairly harmless. used to be a common industrial solvent. guys would wash their hands and arms in it every day at the end of their shift. no mass cancer hotspot. to get concentrations in air as high as you mention, you would have to have to be boiling it from an open container, and death would be from liver toxicity. gasoline is more dangerous than benzene. and if all compound containing a benzene ring are carcinogenic, then DNA is carcinogenic, along with lots of vitamins, compounds in foods, aspirin, ibuprofen, yada yada yada.
vinyl chloride does NOT produce phosgene, at least not the way you make it sound. burning the vinyl chloride will produce a small percentage of phosgene if there is insufficient oxygen for complete combustion. vinyl chloride is a gas at STP. until the 70s it was commonly used as the propellant in aerosol spray cans, and also as a refrigerant in air conditioners and refrigerators. if it was so terrible, why ain't everyone dead from using hairspray and spray paint?
i'm NOT saying either of these are GOOD for you, or that spilling thousands of gallons isn't a major concern. what i'm saying is that you have no clue what you're on about, and you are exaggerating dangers, and quoting specious sources of safety info. yer talking outta yer ass, pally. take your fear pron back to YT.
