  List of Schedule 1 substances (CWC) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Schedule 1 substances, in the sense of the Chemical Weapons Convention, are chemicals which can either be used as chemical weapons themselves or used in the manufacture of chemical weapons and which have no, or very limited, uses outside of chemical warfare.
Examples are mustard and nerve agents, and substances which are solely used as precursor chemicals in their manufacture.
Chemicals which can be used as weapons, or used in their manufacture, but which have legitimate applications as well are listed in Schedule 2 (small-scale applications) and Schedule 3 (large scale applications).

 List of Schedule 2 substances (CWC) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Schedule 2 substances, in the sense of the Chemical Weapons Convention, are chemicals which can either be used as chemical weapons themselves or used in the manufacture of chemical weapons but which have small scale applications outside of chemical warfare and so can be legitimately manufactured in small quantities.
As with the other schedules, they are sub-divided into Part A substances, which are chemicals that can be used directly as weapons, and Part B which are precursors useful in the manufacture of chemical weapons.
Chemicals which can be used as weapons, or used in their manufacture, but which have no, or almost no, legitimate applications as well are listed in Schedule 1, whilst Schedule 3 is used for chemicals which also have widespread industrial uses.
