“…Activated carbon materials both in granular and fibre form are generally used in permeable chemical barrier clothing employed to resist the penetration of liquid chemicals and vapours through adsorption. The adsorption of toxic chemical gases is accompanied by accumulation of vapour molecules at the interface of the adsorbent due to the operation of chemical interactions, including van der Waals interactions, and consequently the penetration or diffusion onto the surface of the solid when it comes into contact with carbon [56]. Activated charcoal contains different sizes of pores including micro-pores (<2 nm), meso-pores (2–50 nm) and macro-pores (>50 nm) (Figure 7(a)) and their adsorption process is largely controlled and affected by the size of pores and their distribution [57].…”

Protection is obligatory for the safety of people in certain occupations where they might be exposed to hazardous chemicals. This review provides an overview of chemical protective clothing, along with its necessity during industrial and military operations as well as in response to acts of terror. Moreover, chemical protective or barrier suits are illustrated and explained including their types, selection processes based on chemical hazards, working environments, and various materials available for the fabrication of effective barrier clothing. Additionally, this review elucidates current research gaps, while underscoring the challenges facing recently developed chemical protective clothing, by compiling relevant research onto a single platform. Besides, this review includes and delineates future trends in chemical protective outfits based on electro-spun nano-fibre technology involved in both detection and decomposition of poisonous chemical agents that come in contact with clothing material, and the integration of selectively permeable membrane technology to discriminately block hazardous chemicals.

Chemical warfare agents (CWA) pose inevitable threat, both to soldiers and civilians. Risk on contact with these deadly agents can be avoided by neutralisation of their toxic effects. A suitable media with essential physico-chemical properties is required for this purpose. Considerable efforts have been made to develop several decontamination media suitable for neutralisation of highly toxic CWAs. This paper reviews history and details of recent technological advancements in the development of versatile, broad spectrum decontamination formulations against CWAs, as also nanosized metal oxides as CWA decontaminants.

“…Studying molecular interactions, which are also called noncovalent or intermolecular interactions, is essential for understanding biological structures and processes. They are important in various fields − such as drug design, material science, sensors, anotechnology, separation, and origins of life. Furthermore, complex solid and liquid molecules have their own interaction capacities, which can be quantified using a set of six molecular interaction parameters ∂ d , ∂ p , E a , E b , C a , and C b .…”

Molecular interactions are important for various areas of research. Interactions between a target molecule and probe molecules having their own interaction capacity can be quantified via six interaction parameters. The theoretical interaction energy can be calculated from the interaction parameters, while that of experimental is measured using a calorimeter. These two methods are proposed in this work to calculate them. The first is based on an equation linking Hansen's and Drago's parameters. The second method is based on an experimental matrix formed by the interaction energies of tert-butanol with the probe molecules characterized by their six interaction parameters. Finally, the quality of the experiment matrix is checked for the effectiveness of the six experimental interaction parameters of the target molecule, which is tert-butanol. Then, these experimental values are compared with theoretical values from interaction parameters.
