Cross Sensitivity
Vinyl chloride: 2 ppm no reading.
Carbon tetrachloride: 2 ppm no reading
Perchloroethylene and Trichloroethylene: 5 ppm changes the indicating layer to a light yellow.
1.2-dichloroethylene: 20 ppm result in a reading of approx. 3 ppm.
1.1-dichloroethylene: up to 2 ppm the sensitivity is the same as with methyl bromide.
