Repeated inhalation of low level concentrations may cause reduced lung capacity and erosion of the teeth. Chronic skin exposure to low concentration may result in dermatitis. Flammability Hazards: Decomposes under intense fire conditions to form extremely flammable and potentially explosive hydrogen gas and very toxic and corrosive chlorine gas. Contact with metals can generate highly flammable hydrogen gas. If involved in a fire it may generate irritating fumes and toxic gases (e.g., hydrogen chloride gas). Reactivity Hazards: Hydrochloric Acid reacts with many Hydrochloric Acid is corrosive to many metals and contact may produce flammable hydrogen gas. Environmental Hazards: This product may cause harm to organisms if accidentally released.
