Study and Development of Metal Oxide Reactive Adsorbents for the Destruction of Toxic Organic Compounds; Final rept. 1 Aug 2004-31 Oct 2007

摘要

The achievements realized during the course of this project provide an important alternative method for mitigating the effects of the exposure of personnel and systems to chemical warfare agents and other toxic organic compounds. The research program that was developed built upon earlier results achieved in the room temperature oxidative decomposition of a chemical warfare agent simulant, dimethyl methylphosphonate (DMMP), on solid reactive adsorbents and examined ways of improving those results by modifying the nature of the reactive adsorbent itself and by adding an energetic co-reactant.
