Carbonyl chloride, phosgene gas was used in WWI along w/ mustard gas (sulfur mustards), that should give a good idea as to what it really does. That guy got lucky. Tetracholorethene and similar chlorine compounds have been outlawed here for ages. A real common one was called "tri" for trichloroethane, Tetrachloroethene is also called perchloroethene, or " per". It used to be commonly used in dry cleaning. Brake solvents here don't contain it anymore.

I spent a couple years in a plant that made aircraft fasteners. They used boiling perc for de-greasing. Bad stuff. I used an oxygen tank to work in the pit. Still got a little light-headed once. I think they had to change over recently too. Dry cleaning retrofitted 10 years ago or more.

Aircraft fasteners?? interesting shit....what type???
TWA had a bunch of vapor degreasers around. Perc that was heated to 160*. the tanks all looked empty but you could see a line about 3' down from the top. Good stuff- hang a greasy part on a wire and drop it into the tank, let it hang for a minute and pull it out. Came out clean. If the part was something that would rust, you had to spray it with something as soon as you could or you could watch it rust almost immediatly.
8 years in the 70s with air industries in garden grove Used a lot of it back then. Great cleaner. Some times people did stay around it to long. But I am sure you have heard all the stories about how bad it was for every thing.
Back in the tocotron days. (bird knows what a tocotron is.)

High frequency induction heater. Kaynar used them to heat treat some fasteners. The Big 3 used them to heat treat valve seats in cylinder heads.
You had to know what you were doing to repair them, or that big ass tube inside would drop you dead in a heart beat.

What did the tube have about it so lethal?? HVoltage or was it that and the RF??
