Ethylene Oxide (EtO)
Ethylene oxide is produced by the reaction of ethylene with oxygen, usually in the presence of a silver catalyst at high temperatures

Guidelines
- OSHA:3 ppm over an 8-hour workday
- US EPA: No specific NAAQS for hydrogen fluoride, but recommended ambient concentration limits are typically set at 0.1 ppm.
Health effects
- Short Term: 1 ppm over an 8-hour workday, with a 5 ppm STEL for 15 minutes
- Long Term:No specific NAAQS, but recommended exposure levels are based on cancer risk assessments, typically around 0.0003 ppm (for long-term exposure)
