OSTI ID:4325469
Candidate mnterials were screened as to their efficiency for removing boranes from contaminated air streams. Chemical tests and animal exposure studies were done. The results show that the following give temporary protection against: diborane --chemical cartridge respirator charged with Hopcalite; pentaborane --chemical cartridge respirator charged with activated C; pentaborane and decaborane --filler medium of silica gel and activated C; and diborane, pentaborane, and decaborane -- silica gel, active Hopealite, and activated C.
