👉 An acid weapon, often referred to as a corrosive agent, is a substance that can cause severe chemical burns and tissue damage upon contact with skin or mucous membranes. These agents, such as sulfuric acid, nitric acid, or hydrochloric acid, react violently with water and tissues, producing hydrogen gas that can lead to rapid cell death and necrosis. Due to their corrosive nature, acid weapons can cause extensive damage and are highly dangerous in both military and industrial contexts. The extreme reactivity and potential for self-propagation make acid weapons particularly hazardous, often requiring specialized protective equipment to handle and neutralize.
