A substance that, according to the DOT, causes visible destruction or permanent changes in human skin tissue at the site of contact or is highly corrosive to steel
of a substance, especially a strong acid; capable of destroying or eating away by chemical action
Liquid or solid that causes visible destruction or irreversible alterations in skin tissue at site of contact, or, in the case of leakage from its packaging, liquid that has severe corrosion rate on steel
A chemical that causes visible destruction of, or irreversible alternations in, living tissue by chemical action at the site of contact; or in the case of leakage from its packaging, a liquid that has a severe corrosion rate on steel A solid or liquid waste that exhibits a "characteristic or corrosivity," as defined by RCRA, may be regulated (by EPA) as a hazardous waste
Forces that cause the eating away of materials in sea water Sea water is corrosive because it combines with air to eat away metals
The description of a material that will cause physical change, usually deterioration or destruction, through chemical or electrochemical action rather than by mechanical action
a substance having the tendency to cause corrosion (such a strong acids or alkali)
A chemical agent that reacts with the surface of a material causing it to deteriorate or wear away
A chemical that causes visible destruction of, or irreversible alterations in, living tissue by chemical action at the site of contact For example, a chemical is considered to be corrosive if, when tested on the intact skin of albino rabbits by the method described by the DOT in Appendix A to 49 CFR Part 173, it destroys or changes irreversibly the structure of the tissue at the site of contact following an exposure period of 4 hours This term shall not refer to action on inanimate surfaces
Any gas which chemically attacks materials with which it comes in contact, such as metals or human tissue
Eats through materials (acid, for example) Oven cleaners, drain cleaners, toilet bowl cleaners and auto batteries are common corrosive products Look for words on the product label like: "Causes severe burns on contact " "Can burn eyes, skin, throat "
A liquid or solid that causes visible destruction or irreversible alterations in human skin tissue at the place where it touches the skin
Able to eat into, wear away or dissolve flesh or metal One of the four hazardous waste characteristics See also toxic, reactive and ignitable
capable of dissolving or gradually wearing away, especially by chemical action Top
A chemical that causes visible destruction of, or irreversible alterations in, living tissue by chemical action at the site of contact
A chemical that causes visible destruction of or irreversible alterations in living tissue by chemical action at the site of contact For example, a chemical is considered to be corrosive if, when tested on the intact skin of albino rabbits by the method described by the DOT in Appendix A to 49 CFR Part 173, it destroys or changes irreversibly the structure of the tissue at the site of contact following an exposure period of 4 hours This term shall not refer to action on inanimate surfaces
A corrosive substance is able to destroy solid materials by a chemical reaction. Sodium and sulphur are highly corrosive
Eating away; having the power of gradually wearing, changing, or destroying the texture or substance of a body; as, the corrosive action of an acid
capable of causing or tending to cause corrosion; eat away usually caused by chemical reactions
Any chemical that causes erosion of skin and/or matter such as containers or surfaces
(n) a substance that may hurt you if touched or could eat through materials such as plastics or metals
A chemical that causes visible destruction or irreversible damage to living tissue by chemical action at the site of contact
If you say that something has a corrosive effect, you mean that it gradually causes serious harm. the corrosive effects of inflation. = damaging
A substance that dissolves metals and other materials or burns the skin An aqueous solution is corrosive if it has a pH of less than or equal to 2 or greater than or equal to 12 If a liquid corrodes steel (SAE 1020) at a rate greater than 6 35 mm per year at a test temperature of 55o C, it is corrosive Examples are waste rust removers, waste acid or alkaline cleaning fluids and waste battery acid SWM Rule 1200-1-11- 02(3) or 40 CFR § 261 22
