Functionalized Nano and Micro Structured Composite Coatings

Abstract

Current methods of decontaminating Chemical Warfare Agents (CWA) contaminated equipment need significant improvement. To this end, the major objective of this work was to conduct research on development of effective nano and micro structured composite coatings capable to collect and decontaminate the chemical agents. In addition, the coating is intended to minimize the contamination cross-section of a coated vehicle. During the project we developed major components required to build effective protecting coatings against CWA. As a result of the work conducted several types of low-surface-energy coatings were created.
