title: Kinetics of degradation of sulfur mustard and sarin simulants on HKUST-1 metal organic framework.
abstract: The applicability of HKUST-1 for the degradation of sulfur mustard and sarin simulants was studied with and without coadsorbed water. Degradation was found to be via hydrolysis and dependent on the nucleophilic substitution reaction, vapour pressure and molecular diameter of the toxicants.
