Reaction Steps

Three mixtures of anhydrous magnesium sulfate, anhydrous sodium bicarbonate and activated carbon were prepared having various weight ratios of the components. The weight ratios of MgSO4 /NaHCO3 /C were 33%:33%:33%; 18%:64%:18%; and 41%:41%18%. Polypropylene scrim packets were filled with 7 grams, 14 grams and 28 grams of each of the mixtures, sealed and enclosed in polyethylene containers holding 1816 grams of TCCA tablets. The containers were stored in a controlled atmosphere maintained at 100° F. and 85 percent relative humidity. Using the method of EXAMPLE 1, head gas analyses determined the percentage of NCl3 and Cl2 present after 14 days. The results are as follows:
