'chemical protective suit' or 'anti-chlorine protective suit' Explanation: Recommendations for Chemical Protective Clothing There are many chemicals which can cause adverse effects on unprotected skin ranging from contact dermatitis to permeation of the skin and systemic toxic effects. In addition, some chemicals (mostly solids) can present a contamination problem where inadvertent ingestion (e.g., lead) could occur or re-entrainment in the airstream (e.g., asbestos) could lead to inhalation. ****Chemical protective clothing (CPC)*****, comprising ****gloves, boots, suits**** and other related components, can prevent direct skin contact and contamination. CPC can also prevent physical injury to the unprotected skin from thermal hazards such as from rapidly evaporating liquidified gases freezing the skin (e.g., LPG)......For example, ****chlorine as a liquidified gas is corrosive****, especially to wet skin, while hydrogen cyanide as a liquidified gas can permeate the skin leading to serious injury or death......Nevertheless, each situation should be evaluated by a competent industrial hygienist or safety professional to determine whether ****protective clothing*** should be used. FROM http://www.google.de/search?q=cache:www.cdc.gov/niosh/ncpc1.... Based on this info, CPC chemical protective clothing is a standard reference in the industry, and in your case 'chemical protective suits' or 'anti-chlorine protective suits' of you wish to be more specific. |
