... Trimethylacetyl Chloride 419 4.4.3. Time Scaling The concentration-time relationship for many irritant and systemically acting vapors and gases may be described by the equation Cn × t = k, where the exponent n ranges from 0.8 to 3.5 (ten Berge et al.

... Trimethylacetyl Chloride 423 APPENDIX A DERIVATION OF AEGL VALUES FOR TRIMETHYLACETYL CHLORIDE Derivation of AEGL-1 Values Data are insufficient to derive AEGL-1 values for trimethylacetyl chloride. Therefore, AEGL-1 values are not recommended.
From page 424...
... 424 Acute Exposure Guideline Levels Uncertainty factors: 10 for interspecies differences 10 for intraspecies variability Modifying factor: 3 for sparse database 10-min AEGL-3: 0.60 ppm (set equal to the 30-min AEGL-3 value)
From page 425...
... Trimethylacetyl Chloride 425 APPENDIX B ACUTE EXPOSURE GUIDELINE LEVELS FOR TRIMETHYLACETYL CHLORIDE Derivation Summary AEGL-1 VALUES Data were insufficient to derive AEGL-1 values for trimethylacetyl chloride. Therefore, AEGL-1 values are not recommended for trimethylacetyl chloride.
From page 426...
... 426 Acute Exposure Guideline Levels Intraspecies: 10 Modifying factor: 3, because of the sparse database. Animal-to-human dosimetric adjustment: None Time scaling: Cn × t = k, with default values of n = 3 when extrapolating to shorter durations and n = 1 when extrapolating to longer durations to derive values protective of human health (NRC 2001)
