These hybrid materials will now be applied as a coating to fabric, thereby trapping and killing deadly agents such as anthrax. "This will give the ultimate protection," said Sun. "We can absorb, trap, and kill the bacteria."

He and Kay Obendorf, a textiles chemistry professor at Cornell who specializes in the surface chemistry of fibers, are working with the National Textile Center to develop fabrics for agricultural workers exposed to pesticides. They also plan to test their new fabric on medical and military staff this year, and to commercialize the fabric by 2008.
