9、.1 GeneralThis practice contains the recommendationsfor minimal informational requirements for the identification ofchemical protective clothing items. It is intended to provide theuser with some of the basic information necessary for theproper selection and use of the chemical protective clothingwh
10、en comparing resistance data derived from ASTM perfor-mance testing.4. Minimal Informational Requirements4.1 The minimum informational requirements for labelingof chemical protective clothing include an identification of theitem, the manufacturers or distributors name, base composi-tion information
11、(material of construction), and size.4.2 The following details the minimum requirements:4.2.1 IdentificationThe name or trade name, or otherdescriptions for the item (such as catalog number, etc.).4.2.2 Manufacturers or Distributors NameThe name ofthe manufacturer or distributor of the item.4.2.3 Ba
12、se Composition and SizeThe barrier compositionof the garment or item (it is suggested that the generic orcommon terms for base composition be provided) and manu-facturers size designation. If of multilayered construction, thelargest percentage of barrier composition or trade name for thecomplete com
13、position can be shown. However, it is suggestedthat all composition elements be noted. The sizing should bethe manufacturers size designation in either a category (forexample, Large) or inch-pound or SI (metric) units (forexample, 42 to 44 in./107 to 112 cm). Width and girthmeasurements are also of
14、value but optional.ANSI 101-1985 isone standard for sizing that could be followed.1This practice is under the jurisdiction of ASTM Committee F23 on PersonalProtective Clothing and Equipment and is the direct responsibility of SubcommitteeF23.30 on Chemicals.Current edition approved June 1, 2006.
