Excluded are liquid hot substances that may be associated with metalprocessing such as water, oil, and caustic solutions.3.1.2 primary protective clothingprotective clothing designed to be worn for work activities during which significant

19、 exposureto molten substance splash, radiant heat, and flame is likely to occur.NOTE 1Such work activities include charging, tapping, and pouring, during which work is carried out in close proximity to molten substances andhot surfaces and contact with either is likely.3.1.3 secondary protective clo

Significance and Use4.1 This specification provides performance properties for textile material and design characteristics for clothing that representminimum initial requirements for primary and secondary protective clothing.4.1.1 The

23、 initial performance properties have been selected based on state-of-the-art materials in use and have been comparedwith commercial standards which take into consideration durability in use for specific apparel items.4.2 Although the specifications for primary protective clothing are written for out

24、er garments, it is recognized that optimumprotective performance to severe exposure involves the use of an appropriate system including work clothing underlayers andundergarments.4.3 It is permissible for one or more of the requirements in Table 1 to be modified upon agreement between the buyer and

25、seller.4.3.1 In such cases, any references to the specification shall specify that: “This fabric meets Performance Specification F1002except for the following characteristic(s).”5. Design and Materials5.1 Clothing design shall be such to cover potentially exposed areas as completely as possible by p
