MOFabric: an effective and wearable protective garment towards CWA detoxification.

ABSTRACT: In current trends, an imminent development of self-detoxification filters is highly desirable against exposure to chemical warfare agents (CWAs). Exploiting protective materials that can be applicable in day-to-day life for instantaneous detoxification will be of immense importance. The available technologies in the current scenario are susceptible to secondary emission and pose a need for an alternate design strategy for effective degradation. In addition, the choice of active material and successful impregnation on a suitable substrate for developing potential barriers requires complex material design. In this context, the developed self-standing UiO-66 and UiO-66-NH₂ functionalized fabrics (MOFabrics) present an expeditious detoxification performance against CWA simulant, met
