Abstract

This article presents the research findings on the evaluation of the ability to transform yperite (HD - a blister agent) of green decontamination based on tungsten. Several key factors influencing the decontaminating potential are thoroughly investigated, including the decontaminant-to-contaminant ratio, reaction temperature, and solution stability. Additionally, the decontamination efficiency on various materials such as paint, alumium, and L1 rubber fabric is also assessed. The results show that at a reaction volume ratio of 1:10, temperature ranging from 10oC to 50oC, and solution stability maintained for 18 hours, the decontamination efficiency on the aluminum surfaces exhibits the highest rate of 99.5%, followed by L1 fabric with 96.2% and paint with 77.8%; the density of decontaminant is recommended to apply 0.2-0.3 L/m2. Moreover, the transformation mechanism of HD by the green decontamination agent is also proposed.
