Breaking Down Chemical Weapons by Metal–Organic Frameworks

Abstract
Seek and destroy: Filtration schemes and self‐detoxifying protective fabrics based on the ZrIV‐containing metal—organic frameworks (MOFs) MOF‐808 and UiO‐66 doped with LiOtBu have been developed that capture and hydrolytically detoxify simulants of nerve agents and mustard gas. Both MOFs function as highly catalytic elements in these applications.
