Thedeleterious effects of these chemicals can range from acute trauma such as skin irritation and burn, tochronic degenerative disease such as cancer. Since engineering controls may not

Summary of Test Method4.1 The permeation of chemical(s) through a protectiveclothing material is assessed by measuring the breakthroughdetection time, standardized breakthrough time, and subse-quent permeation rate through replica

32、te specimens of thematerial intermittently contacted with the chemical.4.2 In the permeation test apparatus, the protective clothingmaterial specimen partitions the challenge chemical from thecollection medium.4.2.1 Contact of the challenge chemical with the clothingmaterials outside surface is made

33、 intermittent by periodicallyadding and removing the test chemical from the challengechamber of the test cell.4.2.2 The collection medium is analyzed quantitatively forits concentration of the challenge chemical and thereby theamount of that chemical that has permeated the barrier as afunction of ti

34、me after its initial contact with the material.4.2.3 By either graphical representation or appropriate cal-culations, or both, the breakthrough detection time, the stan-dardized breakthrough time, and the cumulative permeation ofthe challenge chemical are determined.5. Significance and Use5.1 This t

35、est method is used to measure chemical perme-ation through specimens of protective clothing under thecondition of intermittent contact of a challenge chemical withthe specimen. In many applications, protective clothing iscontacted intermittently to chemicals, not continuously as istested by Test Met

36、hod F 739.5.2 This test method is normally used to evaluate flatspecimens from finished items of protective clothing and ofmaterials that are candidates for items of protective clothing.5.2.1 Finished items of protective clothing include gloves,arm shields, aprons, suits, hats, boots, respirators, a

37、nd the like.5.2.2 The phrase specimens from finished items encom-passes seamed or other discontinuous regions as well as theusual continuous regions of protective clothing items.5.3 In some cases, it may be of interest to comparepermeation behaviors that occur under conditions of intermit-tent conta

38、ct with those that occur during continuous contact.Test Method F 739 is recommended for measuring permeationunder the conditions of continuous contact of the challengechemical with the clothing specimen.5.4 The breakthrough detection time, standardized break-through time, and the cumulative permeati

39、on are key measuresof the effectiveness of a clothing material as a barrier to thechallenge chemical. Such information is used in the compari-son of clothing materials during the process of selectingclothing for protection from hazardous chemicals. Long break-through detection times and standardized

40、 breakthrough timesand low cumulative permeation are characteristics of betterbarriers.NOTE 1At present, no quantitative information exists about accept-able levels of dermal contact. Therefore, the data obtained using this testmethod cannot be used to infer safe exposure levels.5.5 The sensitivity

41、of the test method in detecting lowpermeation rates or amounts of the challenge chemical perme-ated is determined by the combination of: (1) the analyticaltechnique and collection system selected, and (2) the ratio ofmaterial specimen area to collection medium volume or flowrate.5.5.1 The analytical

42、 technique employed should be capableof measuring the concentration of the challenge chemical in thecollection medium at, or below, levels consistent with stan-dardized breakthrough time value specified in 3.1.16.5.5.2 Often, permeation tests will require measurement ofthe challenge chemical over se

43、veral orders of magnitude inconcentration, requiring adjustments in either the samplecollection volume or concentration/dilution, or the analyticalinstrument settings over the course of the test.5.5.3 Higher ratios of material specimen area to collectionmedium volume or flow rate permit earlier dete

44、ction ofpermeation because higher concentrations of the challengechemical in the collection medium will develop in a given timeperiod, relative to those that would occur at lower ratios.5.5.4 The sensitivity of an open-loop system is character-ized by its minimum detectable permeation rate. A method

45、 fordetermining this value is presented in Appendix X1.5.5.5 The sensitivity of a closed-loop system is character-ized by its minimum detectable mass permeated.5.6 Comparison of results of tests performed with differentpermeation test systems requires specific information on thetest cell, procedures

46、, contact and purge times, and analyticaltechniques. Results obtained from closed-loop and open-looptesting may not be directly comparable.5.7 A group of chemicals that is recommended for use inpermeation testing is given in Guide F 1001.6.

48、testspecimen.6.3 Test CellThe test apparatus consists of a two-chambered cell for contacting the specimen with the challengechemical on the specimens normally outside surface and witha collection medium on the specimens normal inside surface.6.3.1 The test cell4, as shown in Fig. 2, is constructed o

49、f twosections of straight glass pipe, each nominally sized to a 25.4mm (1.0 in.) diameter.5Materials other than glass may be used.Such materials would be required for tests involving chemicals(for example, hydrofluoric acid), which are incompatible withglass. The section that is designated to contain the challengechemical is 25.4 mm (1.0 in.) in length. The second section,which is designated to contain the collection medium, is 32mm (1.2 in.) or less in length.4The test cell as shown in Fig. 2 is available from Pesce Lab Sales, P.O. Box 235,226 Bir
