Reactive Surfaces has been granted an Israeli patent covering adhesives functionalized with enzymatic additives.  The adhesives are capable of detoxifying organophosphorus nerve weapons and pesticides.  It has also been granted an Israeli patent covering sealants that are functionalized with its OPDtox additives resulting in rapid nerve weapon detoxification from contaminated vehicles, buildings, and electronics used by warfighters. A significant issue in military decontamination arises as a result of being unable to prevent the creep of nerve agents through joints, channels, windows and glass coverings on electronics.  See, http://nitesh_cw.rodpub.com/issues/0713/view_features/wmdtox-coatings-self-decontamination-becomes-a-reality/
