Significance and Use4.1 This specification provides performance properties fortextile material and design characteristics for clothing thatrepresent minimum initial requirements for primary and sec-ondary protective clothing.4.1.1 The initial performance properti
21、es have been selectedbased on state-of-the-art materials in use and have beencompared with commercial standards which take into consid-eration durability in use for specific apparel items.4.2 Although the specifications for primary protective cloth-ing are written for outer garments, it is recognize
22、d thatoptimum protective performance to severe exposure involvesthe use of an appropriate system including work clothingunderlayers and undergarments.4.3 It is permissible for one or more of the requirements inTable 1 to be modified upon agreement between the buyer andseller.4.3.1 In such cases, any
23、 references to the specification shallspecify that: “This fabric meets Performance SpecificationF 1002 except for the following characteristic(s).”5. Design and Materials5.1 Clothing design shall be such to cover potentiallyexposed areas as completely as possible by proper interfacingof related item
24、s.5.2 Garment design shall permit easy and rapid removal.5.3 Garment design shall be such as to interfere the leastwith work function and still provide the necessary protection.5.4 Closures:5.4.1 Design closure so as to be appropriate for easyremoval of garment (see 5.2).5.4.2 Materials for closures
25、 shall be compatible with ther-mal resistance of fabric used and the protective characteristicsrequired.5.5 Trim, pocketing, and other auxiliary materials used ingarment construction shall meet the flammability requirementsof this specification (see 8.8) and shall not melt upon thermalexposure.5.6 P
