Health hazard
Due to the high volatility of benzene, it is easy to spread when exposed to the air. Human and animal inhalation or skin contact with a large amount of benzene enters the body, which can cause acute and chronic benzene poisoning. [17] Some research reports indicate that part of the cause of benzene poisoning is the production of phenol in the body.
pay attention:
(1) Long-term inhalation can harm the human nervous system, and acute poisoning can cause nerve spasm, even coma, and death.
(2) A large part of leukemia patients have a history of exposure to benzene and its organic products.
