Technical Basis
A review of available data did not identify exposure limits or acute toxicity data specific to this chemical, which is a polymer of chlorotrifluoroethylene (CASRN: 79-38-9). Considering this, analysts evaluated chlorotrifluoroethylene exposure limits (AEGLs, ERPGs) and acute toxicity data (LC50, LCLo, LD50) for TEEL development (Section 3.4.6). Data sources were selected according to the hierarchy listed in Table 3.1. Toxicity data were selected according to type of exposure, species, and route according to the hierarchies stated in Sections 3.3.1, 3.3.2, and evaluated using factors in Tables 3.2, 3.3, and 3.4. The chlorotrifluoroethylene AEGLs were selected due to their priority among Protective Action Criteria (Section 1).
• PAC-1 = AEGL-1 (chlorotrifluoroethylene, CASRN: 79-38-9)
• PAC-2 = AEGL-2 (chlorotrifluoroethylene, CASRN: 79-38-9)
• PAC-3 = AEGL-3 (chlorotrifluoroethylene, CASRN: 79-38-9)
This review generated PAC values inconsistent with Rev 29A. The Rev. 29A TEEL-3 basis was a rat LCLo that was not found during the review. Instead, analysts selected exposure limits (AEGLs) for a similar chemical, chlorotrifluoroethylene (Section 3.4.6).
