PEPPER SHOT PEPPER SPRAY is a 10% pepper spray rated at 2 million scoville heat units and made with a very fine grain that is more effective than the coarser grains of most other pepper sprays. In addition to causing an attacker pain, Pepper Shot swells the mucous membranes, which makes breathing difficult, and swells the veins in the eyes, causing the eyes to close. These effects can last up to 45 minutes and cause no permanent damage. All models have a locking actuator except for the Pepper Pen.
PEPPER SPRAY INFO:
Pepper spray, also known as OC spray (from "Oleoresin Capsicum"), OC gas, and
capsicum spray, is a lachrymatory agent (a chemical compound that irritates the eyes
to cause tears, pain, and even temporary blindness) that is used in riot control, crowd
control, and personal self-defense, including defense against dogs and bears.
Pepper spray is an inflammatory. It causes immediate closing of the eyes, difficulty
breathing, runny nose, and coughing. The duration of its effects depends on the
strength of the spray but the average full effect lasts around thirty to forty-five minutes,
with diminished effects lasting for hours.
The active ingredient in pepper spray is capsaicin, which is a chemical derived from the
fruit of plants in the Capsicum genus, including chilis. Extraction of oleoresin capsicum
from peppers involves finely ground capsicum, from which capsaicin is extracted in an
organic solvent such as ethanol. The solvent is then evaporated, and the remaining
waxlike resin is the oleoresin capsicum. An emulsifier such as propylene glycol is used
to suspend the OC in water, and pressurized to make it aerosol in pepper spray. The
high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) method is used to measure the amount
of capsaicin within pepper sprays. Scoville Heat Units (SHU) are used to measure the
concentration or "heat" of pepper spray.
The European Parliament Scientific and Technological Options Assessment (STOA)
published in 1998 “An Appraisal of Technologies of Political Control” with extensive
information on pepper spray and tear gas.
They write:
"The effects of pepper spray are far more severe, including temporary blindness which
lasts from 15-30 minutes, a burning sensation of the skin which lasts from 45 to 60
minutes, upper body spasms which force a person to bend forward and uncontrollable
coughing making it difficult to breathe or speak for between 3 to 15 minutes."
