Characterization and Neutralization of Arsenical-Based WWII Era Chemical Munition Fills

Abstract : The purpose of this work was to select, optimize, and validate a reagent for neutralization of arsenical fills contained in WWII era non-stockpile munitions. The work focused on the neutralization of arsinol, a mixture of diphenylchloroarsine (DA), phenyldichloroarsine (PD), triphenylarsine (TPA), and arsenic trichloride.
