Zusammenfassung:A first decontaminating formulation includes a volatile solvent, a non-volatile encapsulating agent that is soluble in the volatile solvent, and a microfiber composition dispersed in the volatile solvent, wherein the microfiber composition forms a three-dimensional microfiber network within the volatile solvent. A second decontaminating formulation includes a volatile solvent and a non-volatile encapsulating agent that is soluble in the volatile solvent, wherein the non-volatile encapsulating agent has a melt point above 37 degrees Celsius. As the volatile solvent evaporates, the microfiber network collapses to trap a contaminant and/or the non-volatile encapsulating agent solidifies around the contaminant to immobilize and eliminate the contaminant.
