Toxicology Assessment for Work Unit SAGE 16-01 Qualification of HAP-free Cleaners for Aircraft and Ground Vehicles

Abstract

This assessment determines whether the proposed alternatives to hazardous air pollutant (HAP) cleaners for aircraft and ground vehicles exhibit performance comparable with currently utilized cleaners. The objective formulations will eliminate HAPs and result in a product with a reduced human health and environmental impact. The role of the U.S. Army Public Health Center (APHC) in preparing this Toxicology Assessment is to determine whether or not the candidate replacement formulations pose a reduced hazard to human health and the environment. The formulations presented here are mostly considered less toxic than the currently utilized HAP containing formulation. However, no one single formulation appears safer than the others, and full analyses on all of the formulations were not possible due to a lack of existing toxicity data or transparency in the formulation.
