To find out more about these hydrocarbons you can use on-line public chemical database(s) ( SIN List by Chemsec.org ) and enter either the individual hydrocarbon name or substance CAS number here in brackets.

The above represents just a small number of the total chemicals you are wearing next to and interacting with your sweating skin.
