METHOD OF SIMULATING AN ATTACK WITH CHEMICAL WARFARE AGENTS AND THE TRAINING SUBSTANCE

摘要

A method of simulating an attack with chemical warfare agents, comprising dispersal of a liquid training substance by means of an explosive charge. As training substance, use is made of an oil-in-water emulsion containing an organic simulant compound for a chemical warfare agent, such as methyl salicylate (MES), as emulsified phase. The emulsion has sufficiently high water content to prevent the explosive charge from setting the training substance on fire in dispersal. The invention also concerns the training substance and a liquid composition intended to be mixed with water for producing the training substance.
