Hybrid microporous membranes intended for protective clothing

چکیده
Self-decontaminating materials are defined as substances or objects designed and fabricated to deactivate pathogenic microorganisms or chemical warfare agents. Self-decontamination makes it possible for continuous protection against toxic materials. In order to develop destructive barriers against biological and chemical air pollutants, protective clothing and membranes using catalytic or enzymatic degradation have recently been studied in various fields such as air purification system, chemical biological defense for weapons demilitarization, and personal protection wear. When engineering the selfcontaminating protective systems, catalytic performance and the structure and property of substrate should be investigated and selected.
