Research on formulating ingredients and evaluating the decomposition ability of 2-chloroethyl phenylsulfide by green decontamination based on molybdate

Abstract

This paper presents the results of initial research on investigating the role of some components in green decontamination in the metabolism of 2-chloroethyl phenyl sulfide (a military poison simulant yperit). Each component of green decontamination was investigated and determined to play a role in the detoxification process, including surfactants, catalysts, buffers and oxidizing agents. From the research results, the optimal conditions were selected and initially proposed a detoxifying ingredient with 2-CEPS conversion efficiency of over 99% after 15 minutes. Simultaneously, a number of products have been identified from which the mechanism of 2-CEPS metabolism is proposed.
