American Military University




Chemicals Involved:




UN# 1076-Phosgene is “a colorless gas or a very low-boiling, volatile liquid (b.p. 8.3°C, 48°F)

with an odor of new-mown hay or green corn”(CAMEO Chemicals & NOAA, n.d.). A severely

noxious gas with light symptoms when inhaled that can lead to death within 36 hours if proper

personal protection measures are not taken when handling the gas or chemical initially. If the

chemical in containers is exposed to prolonged intense heat, the chemical in the container can

violently rupture and cause rocketing. Belongs to the Acyl Halides, Sufonyl Halides, and

Chloformates reactive group.

finalized by the National Academies. Thus, final AEGL values as published in NRC Vol 2 (2002)
take precedence.
