Thiophosphoryl-PMMH Dendrimers for Potential Detection and Remediation of CBRN Contamination: Selected Studies and...

The main idea of this work is to implement organic nanomaterials, such as thiophosphoryl-PMMH dendrimers, for the potential detection and remediation of chemical, biological, radiological, and nuclear (CBRN) contamination. An IR-thermal technique for determining the material specific surface morphology and defects of a thiophosphoryl-PMMH dendrimers is presented. Optical (UV-Vis), thermal (DSC), and electrical (dielectric spectroscopy and thermal imaging) characterizations show that the generation and number of surface groups influence the properties of the investigated dendrimers. Finally, general guidelines and procedures of thiophosphoryl-PMMH dendrimers with various generations are proposed for both civilian and military users.
