Highly Efficient Nonwoven CW Decontamination Wipe

Abstract

Novel Approach: Non-woven Technology. Research program utilizes needle-punching technology to develop chemical warfare protective substrates. Important characteristics for chemical protective substrates include: (1) Toxic chemical adsorption; (2) "Next-to-Skin" friendliness; (3) Breathability. Characteristics conflict with each other -- Non-woven technology could be the solution.
