Compounding Techniques for Absorbent Decontaminants

Abstract

A study was made of parameters affecting the spraying of aqueous slurries of active carbon onto surfaces in order to decontaminate same. These slurries incorporate active carbon (minimum of 25%), either coal, petroleum, wood or coconut shell based, athixotroping agent, a dispersant, a pigment and corrosion inhibitor. Work reported in this report relates to the evaluation of a basic formulation with different types of mixing equipment. A homogenizer type mixer was selected to do additional evaluation with the ball milled slurries for comparative data.
