Tear Agents - In Solvents

Tear Agents are primarily an eye-contact and inhalation hazard. Aerosols and vapors are irritating to the skin and eyes at low concentrations but relatively nontoxic via these routes. Solvents may increase the eye, dermal and/or inhalation hazards of the Tear Agents as well as pose toxic hazards themselves (e.g., chloroform, carbon tetrachloride, and benzene). [Pg.97]

IC50S (tearing) impacts from eye exposure to vapor from Tear Agents dispersed in solvents occur at concentrations as low as 0.15 mg/m (10 minute exposure). [Pg.97]

Agents are solutions or suspensions in solvents. Agent odor and/or appearance (see Class Indices C17 and CIS) may be altered or masked by the solvent. [Pg.97]

With the exception of capsaicin (originally proposed as a potential harassing agent in World War I) or pepper spray, tear gases are often a solid at room temperature and are dispersed in an aerosol (a suspension of fine particles in the air), in a liquid solvent (for example, Mace ), or as vapor generated using... [Pg.117]
