Decontaminating Agent, Non-Corrosive

The high profile of environmental considerations ensures that the development of non-corrosive decontamination systems with biodegradable components remains a high priority. The use of A-alkyl-2-pyrrolidones as the major organic biodegradable component of a hypochlorite-based liquid system has been shown to be effective in the decontamination of the major CW agents The use of strong base in A-ethyl-2-pyrrolidone has been shown to function in the same way as DS2 .
