* Indicates substances with a tentative limit value. Tentative limit values are temporary and only advisory limit values.
** The limit value of the Danish Working Environment Authority of 180 mg/m³ applies to petroleum redistilled C9-C14 with < 5% aromatic compounds. The limit value is therefore not fully adequate for the found fractions of aliphatic hydrocarbons, but a precautionary approach has been chosen, i.e. the lowest limit value has been chosen.
E Indicates that there is an EU limit value. The tentative limit value is stated in ppm and converted to mg/m³ according to the instructions in the Danish Working Environment Authority limit value list, 2007.
H Indicates that the substance can be absorbed by the skin.
1 According to the evaporation tests in the box, C5-C8 aliphatic hydrocarbons were measured in large amounts. According to the safety data sheet it contains up 40% heptane and 20-40% butane/propane. It is therefore anticipated that the measured aliphatic hydrocarbons are a mixture of heptane and propane as butane is identified separately. Therefore, it is the limit value of 820 mg/m3 the measured values have to be compared with.
2 The limit value of Limonene covers the D as well as the L version (CAS 138-86-3). D as well as L-Limonene was identified in the analyses. D-Limonene (CAS 5989-27-5) is used as standard for identification.
