N,N-diethylmethylbenzamide, repellent, toxicity parameters, maximum permissible concentration, air of industrial premises.Abstract
Abstract. On the basis of the toxicity parameters of the N,N-diethylmethylbenzamide repellent, which are given in the scientific literature, the maximum permissible concentration in the air of industrial premises at the level of 5 mg/m3 (aerosol + vapors) 3 danger class is proposed.
