In Search of the Silver Bullet: The Reactive Solution

Abstract

A briefing on the development of 'upgradeable' coatings and textile treatments that will react to neutralize and/or entrain pathogens, toxic industrial chemicals/materials (TIC/M), radioisotopes, and/or chemical agents on contact. The property of self-decontamination may reside in one or more components rather than throughout complete systems.
