Abstract
Recently, chemical warfare agents (CWAs) have popped up many times around the world, drawing the attention of both regular citizens and entire nations. Many researchers have used metal–organic frameworks (MOFs), a porous and stable material, to investigate the detoxification mechanisms of real agents and simulants. They have made great contributions to the degradation of CWAs. In this review, the progress in the adsorption and degradation of CWAs and simulants by MOFs powder materials in recent years was introduced. At present, some MOFs can instantly degrade some specific nerve agents. However, the powder MOFs are limited in protective equipment and field deployment. Therefore, the MOFs composites were also discussed, which can be used as comfortable, breathable and wearable protective equipment while maintaining excellent adsorption or degradation effect. Finally, we summarize the whole paper and look forward to the future development direction of MOFs for the detoxification of CWAs. It is expected that this review will provide a valuable reference for the development of new materials for the detoxification of CWAs and the development of protective equipment for CWAs.
