Abstract In the past, North Korean celebrities have been killed by chemical weapons, and many people are increasingly interested in chemical weapons. Chemical weapons have been used since World War I and the risks are very high. To prevent the spread of chemical weapons, Organization for Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) was prohibited in 1997. However, chemical weapons are still being produced by non-participating countries, and in particular, North Korea has many chemical warfare agents. In this study, we attempted to improve the decomposition efficiency of chemical agents by modifying MOF-808, one of the Zr-based metal organic frameworks. The effect of the amine functionalization on the decomposition efficiency of the chemical agent was studied.
