catalytic and photocatalytic reactions of (2-chloroethyl) phenyl sulfide (2-ceps), a mimic of bis (2-chloroethyl)  sulfide (i.e. sulfur mustard) were studied on the surfaces of titanium oxide. tio2 nanoparticles (anatase, rutile and mixture of 80% anatase/20% rutile) along with bulk tio2 were tested as reactive sorbents for reaction of 2-ceps at room temperature (25±0.5°c). reactions were monit...

the zinc-cadmium oxide (zno-cdo) nanocomposites with different weight percentages of cadmium oxide (cdo) nanoparticles were successfully synthesized by the sonochemical method using zinc and cadmium nitrates as precursors to probe their nano-structured surfaces for the decomposition reactions of chloroethyl phenyl sulfide (ceps) as a surrogate of sulfur mustard agent simulant. scanning electron...

The our main goal of the present research is evaluating the performance of MnO2 nanoparticles-AgX zeolite composite as a novel adsorbent catalyst for the decontamination reactions of two most known sulfur mustard simulants; 2-chloroethyl phenyl sulfide (2-CEPS), 2-chloroethyl ethyl sulfide (2-CEES) at room temperature and monitoring by Gas chromatography flame ionization detector (GC-FID) and G...

In this research, CaO (calcium oxide) nanoparticles were synthesized by Co-Precipitation method in the absence and presence of Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) via using calcium (II) nitrate. The Polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) was used as a capping agent to control the agglomeration of the nanoparticles. The synthesized samples were characterized via SEM, XRD and FTIR techniques. The average sizes of nan...

2-Chloroethyl ethyl sulfide (CEES) is a simulant for the chemical warfare agent, bis(2-chloroethyl) sulfide, also known as mustard gas. Functionalized Zr-BTC synthesized and exploited optical detection of CEES.

In this work, zeolite NaY was prepared by hydrothermal method. Then, silver ions were replaced in the zeolite NaY with silver nitrate (AgNO3) solution via using ion exchange (IE) method. The Manganese dioxide (MnO2) nanoparticles (9.3 and 15.8 wt %) for guest were deposited in the zeolite AgY(host) structure with Mn(NO3)2 aqueous and KMnO4 solutions by confined space synthesis (CSS) metho...

In this work a novel bioassay for mustard agent detection was proposed. The bioassay is based on the capability of these compounds to inhibit the enzyme choline oxidase. The enzymatic activity, which is correlated to the mustard agents, was electrochemically monitored measuring the enzymatic product, hydrogen peroxide, by means of a screen-printed electrode modified with Prussian Blue nanoparti...
