    CS Gas (2-chlorobenzylidene malononitrole) General Information Key Points 2-chlorobenzylidene malononitrole or “CS” is a white crystalline solid when pure it is used by UK police forces as a temporary incapacitant spray when released, CS gas will disperse into the atmosphere in a matter of minutes exposure to CS gas may cause intense tear production, eye pain, chest tightness, coughing and sneezing skin contact will lead to burning and stinging with possible redness and blistering treatment is rarely needed because people usually recover within 15-20 minutes physical injury to the eyes may occur if CS gas is sprayed directly into them at a very close range PHE publications gateway number: 2014790 Published: October 2018 Compendium of Chemical Hazards: CS Gas (2-chlorobenzylidene malononitrole) Public Health Questions What is CS gas and what is it used for? 2-chlorobenzylidene malononitrole or “CS” is a white crystalline solid when pure. The substance causes irritation in humans and is used by UK police forces as a temporary incapacitant spray to subdue persons who pose a risk to themselves and/or the police officers and others in the vicinity. It may be dispersed in a smoke cloud or dissolved into liquid (e.g. the solvent methyl iso-butyl ketone) to be used as a spray. The CS spray carried by some UK police forces contains 5% 2-chlorobenzylidene malononitrole. It is also used by the military in training operations and for testing gas masks. These substances may be referred to as CS or tear spray/gas (not to be confused with PAVA spray which is also be referred to as tear spray/gas).

  • Half Way Down the Trail to Hell
    Half Way Down The Trail To Hell A Wartime Remembrance in Three Parts By Stephen E. Kirkland i Prologue “The danger, being around veterans, the memories are so selective and so heroic that you’ve got to be careful talking to a guy like me.” George Herbert Walker Bush A while back I discovered the Library of Congress is conducting a program called The Veterans History Project. The mission of the project is the collection and preservation of veteran’s wartime recollections and documents before they are lost forever. Like many wartime veterans, I concentrated on getting on with my life. I needed a job that would allow me to marry, buy a house and raise a family. I didn’t feel anything I had experienced in Vietnam would contribute to these goals, and I felt that, for the most part, people who hadn’t served didn’t know or even care what I had seen or done. The country’s attitude was different than with the Gulf War veterans and I deflected the few inquires that were made, especially the ones that contained the words “Did ya’ kill anybody?” I was too busy dealing with the present to spend a lot of time staring into the past. Now, almost four decades after returning home, the time has come to look back and try to recreate a piece of personal history, albeit history filtered though my water colored memories. I’ve relied on a number of sources for this remembrance, not the least of which were letters that I wrote home.

  • A Study for Health Hazard Evaluation of Methylene Chloride Evaporated from the Tear Gas Mixture
    Saf Health Work 2010;1:98-101 | DOI:10.5491/SHAW.2010.1.1.98 pISSN : 2093-7911 eISSN : 2093-7997 Case Report A Study for Health Hazard Evaluation of Methylene Chloride Evaporated from the Tear Gas Mixture Seung-Hyun PARK, Eun-Kyo CHUNG, Gwang-Yong YI, Kwang-Jae CHUNG, Jung-Ah SHIN and In-Seop LEE Department of Occupational Environment Research, Occupational Safety and Health Research Institute, KOSHA, Incheon, Korea This study explored the health hazard of those exposed to methylene chloride by assessing its atmospheric concentration when a tear gas mixture was aerially dispersed. The concentration of methylene chloride ranged from 311.1–980.3 ppm (geometric mean, 555.8 ppm), 30 seconds after the dispersion started. However, the concentration fell rapidly to below 10 ppm after dispersion was completed. The concentration during the dispersion did not surpass the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health ‘immediately dangerous to life or health’ value of 2,300 ppm, but did exceed the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists excursion limit of 250 ppm. Since methylene chloride is highly volatile (vapor pressure, 349 mmHg at 20oC), the post- dispersion atmospheric concentration can rise instantaneously. Moreover, the o-chlorobenzylidenemalononitrile formulation of tear gas (CS gas) is an acute upper respiratory tract irritant. Therefore, tear gas mixtures should be handled with delicate care. Key Words: Methylene chloride, CS tear gas, Tear gas mixture, Health hazard evaluation Introduction Despite this long history of use, CS gas has recently come under greater scrutiny since it can be applied as a mixture that Tear gases such as o-chlorobenzylidenemalononitrile (CS), contains a suspected human carcinogen, methylene chloride.
