Blister agents, sometimes called vesicants, are chemicals that cause severe and acute irritation to the skin and mucus membranes.
There are innumerable weaponized blister agents, but probably the most well known is mustard gas which was used widely during the first World War. This was a Sulfur mustard but their are also Nitrogen mustards. Although developed during World War 1, the British blister agent Lewisite was never used in action and was rendered obsolete with the development of an antidote.

Two types of chemical agents where surface contamination can be detected using m8 paper?
Vesicants (blister agents) such as sulfur mustard and nerve agents such as sarin can be detected on surfaces using M8 paper, which changes color in the presence of these chemical agents. M8 paper is a reactive paper that turns red for vesicants and yellow for nerve agents when they are present on a surface.
