Trichloroethylene chemical structure

Results from the DIPPR project (5) were selected for viscosity of gas. Since the chemical structure of vinylidene chloride is between that of vinyl chloride and trichloroethylene, the values for vinylidene chloride were estimated from values for vinyl chloride and trichloroethylene. In the absence of data, this estimate should be considered a rough approximation. Data for gas viscosity as a function of temperature were correlated using Equation (1-7). Results are in favorable agreement with data. Errors are about 10% or less in most cases.

CHLORINATED HYDROCARBON An Organic compound having chlorine atoms in its chemical structure. Trichloroethylene, methyl chloroform, and methylene chloride are chlorinated hydrocarbons. 

The chemical formula, structure, synonyms, and identification numbers for trichloroethylene are listed in Table 3-1. 

Currently, over 100 compounds have been identified as PPs. The literature indicates that induction of peroxisome proliferation is not limited to exogenous chemicals. A number of endogenous substances, such as the steroid hormones, thyroid hormones, mor-phogenes, and fatty acids, are also involved in peroxisome proliferation. Peroxisome proliferation in hepatic parenchymal cells of rats and mice following the administration of clofibrate has been reported by numerous investigators. Compounds that are structurally unrelated to clofibrate, such as acetaminophen and Wy-14,643, can also cause peroxisome proliferation (Table 1). The industrial solvent trichloroethylene, the industrial plasticizers dill-ethyl hexyl) phthalate (DEHP) and di(2-ethyl hexyl) adipate (DEHA), have also been found to be hepatic peroxisome proliferators.
