Phosphorus Trichloride or (PCl3) is a colorless to yellow fuming liquid. It’s widely used as a precursor in the production of organophosphorus compounds, pesticides, and chemical intermediates. Highly used for electrodeposition of metal on rubber and for making pesticides, gasoline additives, surfactants, plasticizers, germicides, dyestuffs, textile finishing agents, medicinal products, and other chemicals.

Chemical Properties & Specifications
Corrosive and irritating to the eyes. Contact with the liquid or vapor causes painful burns and ulcerations. Burns to the eyesresult in lesions and possible loss of vision.
Corrosive and irritating to the skin and all living tissue. Toxic level exposure to dermal tissue causes acid-like burns and skin lesions resulting in early necrosis and scarring. It hydrolyzes very rapidly with the liberation of heat yielding hydrochloric and phosphoric acid. Acid burns exhibit severe pain, redness, possible swelling and early necrosis.
Corrosive and irritating to the upper and lower respiratory tract and all mucosal tissue. Symptoms include lacrimation, cough, labored breathing, and excessive salivary and sputum formation. Excessive irritation causes chemicalpneumonitis and pulmonary edema which could be fatal.
