Significance and Use4.1 This practice presents those elements th

27、at constitute a chemical protective clothing (CPC) program and conditions to be usedin establishing a program for the selection and use of CPC.Adherence to this practice requires that a written program be developedfor any use of CPC.F1461 1724.2 Although much remains to be determined regarding the t

28、oxicity of vapor and liquid exposure to the skin, this practiceoutlines the essential information necessary and suggested methods for hazard risk assessment prior to the selection of CPC (seePracticePractices F1154).4.3 This practice does not address the various methods for testing CPC or obtaining

29、the data upon which CPC assessments aremade. These test methods are listed in Section 2 of this practice.4.4 This practice does not include recommendations that may apply to personal protection from nuclear radiation, radioactivecontamination, or microbiological organisms, or to clothing that is wor

30、n to protect a particular environment from the entry ofchemicals, particles, or living matter that may arise from the wearer.4.5 CPC should be used when other means of control are not available. Its major uses should be limited to the following:4.5.1 Maintenance operations;4.5.2 Upset or emergency c

31、onditions;4.5.3 Use in lieu of engineering controls when they are not feasible or are being installed;4.5.4 Supplementing feasible engineering controls when they fail to control the hazard completely; and4.5.5 Use in the event that engineering controls fail.4.6 Engineering controls and substitution

32、of materials should be stressed as the first line of defense in all control situations sinceeffective use of CPC depends on worker compliance, proper selection, quality control, and other variables that may prove to beweak links in an overall control process.5. Minimum Program Requirements and Objec

33、tives5.1 The primary objective shall be to minimize employee exposures. This objective should be accomplished to the extentfeasible by accepted engineering control measures.These include enclosure or confinement of the operation, isolation of the workerfrom the operation, substitution of less toxic

34、materials, and modification of work practices. When these controls are not feasible,or while they are being implemented or evaluated, appropriate CPC shall be used pursuant to the requirements in this practice andregulatory requirements, where applicable.5.2 Program Administration and Responsibility

35、:5.2.1 Responsibility and authority for implementing the CPC program shall be assigned to a single person. This person willnormally be a plant manager, supervisor, or other person with line supervisory authority. This person is called the programauthority.5.2.2 Normally, a second person shall have r

36、esponsibility for preparing the written program. This person is called the programadministrator. His duties also include maintaining and updating standard procedures and the CPC written program, based onchanges in CPC technology and knowledge; maintaining records; auditing and evaluating the program

37、; directing, interacting with,or supervising those who dispense CPC at the worksite and those who train workers in the use of CPC; and establishing proceduresfor the purchase of CPC. The program administrator will usually have staff responsibilities. The program administrator shall haveknowledge of

38、CPC sufficient to supervise the CPC program properly. (Where possible, the administrator of a CPC program shouldalso be the administrator of the respiratory protection program, if one exists, in order to improve coordination.)5.3 Written ProgramsThe CPC program shall be established and detailed in a

39、 written document.5.4 CPC SelectionThe selection of the CPC article shall be based on consideration of the following:5.4.1 Exposure situation (vapor, pressured splash, liquid splash, intermittent liquid contact, and continuous liquid contact);5.4.2 Toxicity and amount of the chemical(s) (that is, be

40、st knowledge or the estimate of ability to permeate the skin and ofsystemic toxicity);5.4.3 Physical properties of the contaminant chemicals (for example, vapor pressure, molecular weight, and polarity);5.4.4 Functional requirements of the task (for example, dexterity, thermal protection, fire prote

41、ction, and mechanical durabilityrequirements); and5.4.5 Properties of the CPC that are relevant to the physical and chemical hazards and functional requirements of the task. Theseproperties are determined through appropriate testing techniques and include permeation resistance, degradation resistanc

42、e,penetration resistance, dexterity, resistance to tear, and so forth, as applicable. (See Test MethodMethods F739 and F903, GuideF1001, and Practice Test Method F1052.)5.4.6 Selection of the CPC should consider the materials from which the garment, gloves, visor, hoods, and boots areconstructed, th

43、e seam construction and the design of the garments.5.4.7 Selection of the CPC sholdshould also consider the likelihood of coming in contact with the hazardous materials, theduration of the contact, the amount of contact and the direction of liquid contact.5.5 The selection procedure shall be documen

44、ted. Minimally, the selection process should consider degradation, penetration,and permeation resistance of the CPC. Degradation could result in an adverse loss of integrity and chemical resistance properties.Penetration could result in direct skin contact by an agent from bulk flow through seams, p

45、inholes, and so forth. Permeation canresult in skin contact by an agent without any outward signs of either penetration or degradation since molecular flow of thecontaminant through the protective article is occurring.F1461 1735.6 TrainingEach CPC user shall be given training that shall include the

46、following:5.6.1 A description of the hazards for which the CPC is being selected;5.6.2 An explanation and discussion of the toxicity of the contaminants for which CPC is being used including symptoms thatindicate an overexposure has occurred;5.6.3 Limitations of CPC use;5.6.4 Training how to use CPC

47、, including donning, decontamination in order to safely doff the garment, doffing, proper storage,maintenance, inspection, and decontamination for safe reuse where applicable; and disposal of CPC.5.6.5 Each CPC user should tested after training and periodically thereafter, to verify that they unders

48、tand and can follow theCPC training, retrained if necessary or restricted from using CPC if they can not understand or follow the training.5.7 CPC UseThe employer shall not use CPC in violation of the written program or the manufacturers instructions. Whenusing CPC, the employer shall consider speci

49、al emergency-use precautions. The buddy system shall be used in conjunction withemergency-use CPC.5.8 Maintenance and StorageMaintenance and inspection shall be conducted on a schedule that ensures that each piece ofCPC delivers the protection for which it was selected. Minimally, each piece of CPC shall be inspected by the wearer prior to itsuse to ensure its integrity. CPC should be stored in accordance with manufacturers instructions.5.9 DecontaminationProcedures for decontamination and reuse shall be documented. CPC should not be used afte
