About This Item

 

Full Description

This International Standard describes laboratory test methods that enable a determination of the resistance of materials used in protective clothing to permeation by liquid or gaseous chemicals under the conditions of either continuous or intermittent contact.

Method A (see 8.3) is applicable to the testing of liquid chemicals, either volatile or soluble in water, expected to be in continuous contact with the protective clothing material.

Method B (see 8.4) is applicable to the testing of gaseous chemicals expected to be in continuous contact with the protective clothing material.

Method C (see 8.5) is applicable to the testing of liquid chemicals, either volatile or soluble in water, expected to be in intermittent contact with the protective clothing material.

These test methods are only suitable for the testing of air-impermeable protective clothing materials. They assess the permeation resistance of the protective clothing material under laboratory conditions in terms of breakthrough time, permeation rate, and cumulative permeation. These test methods also enable observations to be made of the effects of the test liquid on the protective clothing material under test.

These test methods address only the performance of materials or certain material constructions (e.g. seams) used in protective clothing. These test methods do not address the design, overall construction and components, or interfaces of garments or other factors which may affect the overall protection offered by the protective clothing.

It is emphasized that these tests do not necessarily simulate conditions to which clothing materials are likely to be exposed in practice. The use of test data should therefore be restricted to broad comparative assessment of such material according to their permeation-resistance characteristics.
