| Abstract from DBPedia | Carbon tetrachloride, also known by many other names (such as tetrachloromethane, also recognised by the IUPAC, carbon tet in the cleaning industry, Halon-104 in firefighting, and Refrigerant-10 in HVACR) is an organic compound with the chemical formula CCl4. It is a colourless liquid with a "sweet" smell that can be detected at low levels. It is practically incombustible at lower temperatures. It was formerly widely used in fire extinguishers, as a precursor to refrigerants and as a cleaning agent, but has since been phased out because of environmental and safety concerns. Exposure to high concentrations of carbon tetrachloride (including vapor) can affect the central nervous system and degenerate the liver and kidneys. Prolonged exposure can be fatal.四塩化炭素（しえんかたんそ、英: carbon tetrachloride）あるいはテトラクロロメタン（英: tetrachloromethane）は、化学式 CCl4 で表される化学物質。 (Source: http://dbpedia.org/resource/Carbon_tetrachloride) |
