Chemcial warfare "officially" wasn't used in the war. Although lots of CS gas was as well as Foo Gas emplaced around the perimeter of firebases. That gas however was probably just a ground form of naplam; detonated just like a claymore anti-personnel mine.

Agent Orange was air dropped over forests (jungles) to destroy them. The agent was a defoliate with the intended purpose of robbing the NVA and VC of cover and consealment (protection from bombs & bullets/protection from visual observation).
