摘要

Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as a decontaminant has been paid attention in the world. The activation system of H2O2 by organic activators has recently become a research hotspot in the decontamination of chemical warfare agents and hazardous chemicals. In this paper, the activation mechanism of H2O2 by guanidine activators had been investigated via some in-situ analytic methods, such as laser Raman spectroscopy (LRS), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), chemiluminescence (CL) and so on. The results showed that 1-acetylguanidine (ACG) effectively activates H2O2 to generate multiple reactive oxygen species (ROS), including peroxyimide ions, HOO, ·O2, 1O2, and ·OH, with 1O2 being the dominant species. The optimum activation conditions included that, the molar ratio of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and ACG should be the range of 1:1–1:3; the pH value of the active reaction solution could be between 8.0 and 10.0; the activation reaction temperature was about 30 ℃. Meanwhile, the active solution of H2O2/ACG under the best conditions had been used to decontaminate 2-chloroethyl ethyl sulfide (2-CEES) which was a simulant of chemical warfare agent sulfur mustard. When the volume ratio of decontaminant solution and 2-CEES liquid drops was about 50:1, the decontamination efficiency of 2-CEES had been reached to 99.9% after 30 min in the H2O2/ACG solution. Compared with traditional decontamination formulations, the H2O2/ACG system offers advantages of mild reaction conditions and excellent environmental compatibility, holding promising application prospects in the remediation of specially contaminated environments and emergency disposal of hazardous chemicals.
