PRODUCTION
LABORATORY METHODS:
Direct synthesis:
Combination of hydrogen and chlorine in presence of UV light.
Cl2(g) + H2(g) 2 HCl(g).
Organic synthesis:
Byproduct during formation of chlorinated and fluorinated organic compounds.
e.g. Teflon, Freon and other CFCs
R-H + Cl2 R-Cl + HCl
R-Cl + HF R-F + HCl

METHODS OF SHIPMENT
Under the appropriate regulation, anhydrous hydrogen chloride is authorized for
shipment as follows:

An alternate approved connection for high-purity applications is the CGA 634. This is called
a DISS (diameter index safety system) connection and requires a nickel gasket that seals
with 35 foot pounds of torque. This connection has a right-hand thread (loosens
counterclockwise). A new gasket should be installed each time a cylinder is connected.

A threshold limit value (TLV) ceiling limit of 5 ppm or 7 mg/m3 for hydrogen chloride has been
adopted by the US Occupational Safety and Health Administration and the American Conference
of Governmental Industrial Hygienist
Inhalation of excess quantities of hydrogen chloride produces coughing, burning of the throat,
and a chocking sensations.
Occasionally, ulceration of the nose, throat an larynx or edema of the lungs has resulted.
Repeated exposure to skin may result in burns or dermatitis.
A concentration of 50 ppm in air cannot be tolerated for more than one hour and concentration
of around 1500-2000 ppm are fatal for humans within a few minutes
Rubber or plastic aprons and gloves should be used as protective clothing with wool or other
hydrochloric acid resistant outer garments and chemical goggles.
