PROTECTIVE CLOTHING – PROTECTION AGAINST LIQUID CHEMICALS – DETERMINATION OF RESISTANCE OF PROTECTIVE CLOTHING MATERIALS TO PERMEATION BY LIQUIDS AND GASES (ISO 6529:2001, IDT)
This Malaysian 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 break th
