A colorless mobile liquid. Acrid, biting, irritating, fruit-like odor
Colorless, mobile liquid; becomes yellowish under the action of light and air. Fruitlike odor (high dilution). Decomposed by water.
Attacks brass but not iron (dry). Soluble in alcohol, benzene, ether, and
water.
A colorless liquid with a fruity biting irritating odor. Vapors irritate eyes and skin. Very toxic by inhalation. Boiling point 168°F. Denser than water and vapors are heavier than air. Vapor pressure 2.3 mm at 71°F.
Reacts with water or moist air to form hydrochloric acid or fumes of hydrogen chloride.
ETHYL DICHLOROARSINE is a reducing agent. Reacts rapidly and dangerously with oxygen and with other oxidizing agents, even weak ones. Likely to ignite on contact with alcohols. Incompatible with acids, alcohols, amines, and aldehydes. May be ignited by heat, sparks or flames. May re-ignite after fire is extinguished.
Toxic by ingestion, inhalation, and skin
absorption; strong irritant.
Highly toxic, may be fatal if inhaled, swallowed or absorbed through skin. Avoid any skin contact. Effects of contact or inhalation may be delayed. Fire may produce irritating, corrosive and/or toxic gases. Runoff from fire control or dilution water may be corrosive and/or toxic and cause pollution.
Non-combustible, substance itself does not burn but may decompose upon heating to produce corrosive and/or toxic fumes. Containers may explode when heated. Runoff may pollute waterways.
A human poison by
inhalation. Experimentally, a deadly poison
by inhalation and subcutaneous routes, and
probably by ingestion. A severe irritant. A
mdltary poison gas. Can react with oxidzing
materials. Will react with water or steam to
produce toxic and corrosive fumes.
Dangerous; on contact with acid or acid
fumes it emits highly toxic fumes of Cl-, As,
and phosgene. See also ARSENIC
COMPOUNDS.
Organoarsenic compound,
Organometallic.

Zone B. Military driver shall be given full and complete
information regarding shipment and conditions in case of
emergency. AR 50-6 deals specifically with the shipment
of chemical agents. Shipments of agent will be escorted in
accordance with AR 740-32
Reacts with water or moist air releasing
hydrochloric acid and/or corrosive fumes of hydrogen chloride (HCl). A strong reducing agent; incompatible with oxidizers (chlorates, nitrates, peroxides, permanganates,
perchlorates, chlorine, bromine, fluorine, etc.); contact may
cause fires or explosions. Keep away from alkaline materials, strong bases, strong acids, oxoacids, and epoxides.
Attacks some metals; brass, but not ferrous metals
Use a licensed professional
waste disposal service to dispose of this material. Dissolve
or mix the material with a combustible solvent and burn in
a chemical incinerator equipped with an afterburner and
scrubber. All federal, state, and local environmental regulations must be observed.
