乙醚 Detection
Formula (C₂H₅)₂O · CAS 60-29-7 · 极易燃 / 麻醉
Hazards & Toxic Symptoms
Ether is a colorless, volatile, and flammable liquid (one of the most dangerous organic solvents) with strong anesthetic effects. It has a low lower explosion limit (1.9%) and can be ignited by electrostatic sparks. It was once used as a surgical anesthetic. Long-term storage can produce peroxides, which are explosive.
Occupational Exposure Limits (GBZ 2.1-2019)
| PC-TWA (Time-Weighted Average) | 300 mg/m³ |
|---|---|
| IDLH (Immediately Dangerous to Life or Health) | 1900 ppm |
| LEL (Lower Explosive Limit) | 1.9% |
| UEL (Upper Explosive Limit) | 36% |
