Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A biocidal and sporicidal smoke composition(s) using iodine oxide and metal powder is provided. This composition generates iodine gas or smoke as the primary biocidal agent, as well as metal oxides that provide additional biocidal properties. The smoke producing composition is suitable for pressing into canisters of compacted powder at a load pressure range of 1500 to 7500 psi and can be used for decontamination of spaces believed to be contaminated with biological agents. The composition is also suitable for use in hand grenades, smoke pots, rifle grenades, mortars, multiple launch grenades, shoulder fired missiles, and artillery rounds, as well as first responder and commercial biological decontamination applications.
