Common NameHexachloroethane
Descriptionhexachloroethane, also known as carbon hexachloride or C2CL6, belongs to the class of organic compounds known as organochlorides. Organochlorides are compounds containing a chemical bond between a carbon atom and a chlorine atom. hexachloroethane is possibly neutral. It is currently being manufactured directly in India. hexachloroethane is a potentially toxic compound. Smoke grenades, called hexachloroethane (HCE) smoke or HC smoke, utilize a mixture containing roughly equal parts of HCE and zinc oxide and approximately 6% granular aluminium. Hexachloroethane has been used as an anthelmintic in veterinary medicine, a rubber accelerator, a component of fungicidal and insecticidal formulations as well as a moth repellant and a plasticizer for cellulose esters. This reaction occurs stepwise. It was phased out as early as 1999 in the United States. It has been used by the military in smoke compositions, such as base-eject smoke munitions (smoke grenades). This compound has been identified in human blood as reported by (PMID: 31557052 ). Hexachloroethane is not a naturally occurring metabolite and is only found in those individuals exposed to this compound or its derivatives. Technically Hexachloroethane is part of the human exposome. The exposome can be defined as the collection of all the exposures of an individual in a lifetime and how those exposures relate to health. An individual's exposure begins before birth and includes insults from environmental and occupational sources.
