17、iers to Trade (TBT) Committee.13.2.9 protective clothing, nan item of clothing that isspecifically designed and constructed for the intended purposeof isolating all or part of the body from a potential hazard; orisolating the external environment from contamination by thewearer of the clothing.3.2.9
18、.1 DiscussionFor the purpose of this guide, theapplicable protective clothing is principally intended to provideprotection from chemicals and other hazardous substances.3.2.10 sanitization, na process that uses a type of antimi-crobial agent that reduces, but not necessarily eliminates,microorganism
19、s from the inanimate environment to levelsconsidered safe as determined by public health codes orregulations.3.2.10.1 DiscussionSanitizers are considered pesticidesand are subject to regulations established by the U.S. Environ-mental Protection Agency. In general, a sanitizer is judgedeffective when
20、 it reduces the number of microorganisms by99.9 % under specified testing conditions.3.2.11 storage life, nthe length of time that protectiveclothing can remain in storage, presuming that the protectiveclothing has undergone proper care and maintenance in accor-dance with the manufacturers instructi
21、ons but has not beenused either in training or at actual incidents.3.2.12 wearing instructions, nprocedures for donning,doffing, fitting, and adjusting protective clothing and preparingprotective clothing for use.4. Significance and Use4.1 This practice describes the minimum information to beprovide
22、d by the manufacturer or seller to the buyer or end userrelated to the wearing, care, and maintenance of chemicalprotective clothing.

23、e F1301), pamphlets, or other documents.4.2 Not every element of this practice may be applicable toall chemical protective clothing components or configurations.It is the manufacturers or sellers responsibility to determinewhich portions of this practice, and the correspondingrequirements, are appli
24、cable to their chemical protective cloth-ing products. For informational requirements that are notapplicable because of the nature of the product and intendeduse, the manufacturer or seller is to indicate and describe thoseportions or requirements that are not applicable.4.3 All information related
25、to wearing, decontamination,care, and maintenance are required to be written in a manner sothat the end user can readily understand the details. Toemphasize important limitations, bold lettering and explicitwarning terminology (for example, signal words such asdanger,warning,and caution(described in
26、 ANSI Z535.4)are to be used. Where possible, pictograms and illustrations arerequired to convey specific instructions. In addition, the use ofsymbols, such as those provided in the care of textile productsin Guide D5489, are appropriate for indicating specific careprocedures used in cleaning protect
