Results and discussion

In vivo

Other effects:
Severe burns, with complete denaturation and tissue sloughing, may occur within two to three minutes after exposure.
The data source describes chlorosilanes as very corrosive to skin and mucous membranes as they liberate hydrochloric acid in the presence of water.
When applied to the skin of rabbit, the region attacked by chlorosilanes blanches and blisters appear; the action is more marked the damper the surface of skin is.
