Pitfalls of Chemical Protective Clothing Selection

Steve Mata, DuPont

Floral A1

The use of chemical protective clothing is a commonplace throughout the Texas and Louisiana Chemical Industry and as such can easily have its merits and limitations taken for granted. This presentation provides a grounding on considerations for selecting the appropriate garment for the ultimate protection. The session will help to understand the key determinants of selecting a Fabric, Seam and Design for the hazard. Then adds the nuances that can lead to pitfalls such as Chemical Mixtures, elevated temperatures, no direct permeation data and much more. A final topic will focus on the need for both chemical and flame protection. How do you handle the Dual Hazard environment?
