Swatch Test Results of Duraclean with Lycra Commercial Chemical Protective Gloves to Challenge by Chemical Warfare Agents

摘要

Swatches from Wiltshire Technologies, Incorporated (Carlsbad, CA), Duraclean with Lycra gloves were challenged with liquid droplets of sarin (GB) and mustard (HE) using modifications of the static diffusion procedure described in TOP 8-2-501. The cumulative mass of each agent that permeated each swatch was determined over time, and the results for all swatches were used to determine an average cumulative mass for the gloves. From these data, a breakthrough time was calculated for each glove/agent combination for comparison purposes.
