Journal Textile Coloration and Finishing Year / Vol., Issue, Month 2019 / V.31,no.1,Mar Title Preparation of Self-detoxifying Textile for Removal of Chemical Warfare Agents Authors Hanil Kim, Ik-Sung Choi1, Seong-Woo Park1, Yo-han Han2, Sung-Hun Kim3, Hyun-Bae Park3 and Mun-hong Min Institution/Affiliations DYETEC, 1KTDI, 2KRICT, 3ADD Pages/Total page pp.33 ~ 41 / 9 Language Korean Abstract Abstract In this report, nano-sized catalysts were introduced onto fabric surface to eliminate toxic chemicals assisted by physical adsorption. For chemical removal of toxic compounds, a series of zirconium-containing catalysts were synthesized and treated on fabric to catalyze the hydrolysis and oxidation of target molecules. Antimicrobial was also introduced for the research purpose to prove the compatibility of as-synthesized catalysts with other solutions. Zirconium ligated with hydroxyl group and MOF(Metal-Organic Frameworks) were exploited as catalyst for removal of toxic compounds, while zinc complex was used for an antimicrobial to culminate in a chemical shield. Once fabrics were functionalized, fabrics were washed 2 or 5 times for a washing durability test. The amount of catalyst in textile were measured by ICP-MS and weight increasing ratio of fabrics.
