본문내용

Vinyl chloride is a colorless gas, It has a mild, sweet odor

It burns easily and it is not stable at high temperatures

It is a manufactured substance that does not occur naturally

It can be formed when other substances such as trichloroethane, trichloroethylene, and tetrachloroethylene are broken down

Vinyl chloride is used to make polyvinyl chloride (PVC), copolymers, 1,1,1-trichloroethane

Vinyl chloride is also known as chloroethene, chloroethylene, and ethylene monochloride

Small amounts of vinyl chloride can dissolve in water.

Vinyl chloride is unlikely to build up in plants or animals that you might eat.
