Corrosive \Cor*ro"sive\, n.
   1. That which has the quality of eating or wearing away
      gradually.

            [Corrosives] act either directly, by chemically
            destroying the part, or indirectly by causing
            inflammation and gangrene.            --Dunglison.

   2. That which has the power of fretting or irritating.

            Such speeches . . . are grievous corrosives.

      -- {Cor*ro"sive*ly}, adv. -- {Cor*ro"sive*ness}, n.

Corrosive \Cor*ro"sive\ (k?r-r?"s?v), a. [Cf. F. corrosif.]
   1. Eating away; having the power of gradually wearing,
      changing, or destroying the texture or substance of a
      body; as, the corrosive action of an acid. ``Corrosive
      liquors.'' --Grew. ``Corrosive famine.'' --Thomson.

   2. Having the quality of fretting or vexing.

            Care is no cure, but corrosive.       --Shak.

   {Corrosive sublimate} (Chem.), mercuric chloride, {HgCl2}; so
      called because obtained by sublimation, and because of its
      harsh irritating action on the body tissue. Usually it is
      in the form of a heavy, transparent, crystalline
      substance, easily soluble, and of an acrid, burning taste.
      It is a virulent poison, a powerful antiseptic, and an
      excellent antisyphilitic; called also {mercuric
      bichloride}. It is to be carefully distinguished from
      calomel, the mild chloride of mercury.
