👉 Smoke fluid, often associated with the infamous "smokers" or "blue smokes" of the 1980s, is a volatile organic compound primarily composed of benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylene (collectively known as BTEX). These chemicals are highly flammable and evaporate easily at room temperature, creating a dense, dark smoke that gives the fluid its characteristic appearance. The smoke fluid is typically found in the form of a sticky, oily substance that adheres to surfaces and can be difficult to clean up due to its strong odor and chemical properties. It poses significant health risks when inhaled, including respiratory irritation, dizziness, and in severe cases, long-term damage to the nervous system. The term "smoke fluid" is also colloquially used in popular culture to describe the toxic byproducts of burning plastics, further emphasizing its hazardous nature.
