No. 14

Use

Cyclite (No. 14) is a mixture of benzyl bromide (Cyclite) and titanium tetrachloride (Fumigerite). Benzyl bromide (Cyclite) is a low volatility, persistent lachrymatory agent. It is very stable and decomposes slowly. Its vapors are thoroughly adsorbed in charcoal and is, therefore, of limited effectiveness if standard protective equipment is worn.
