ISO 19918 Protective Clothing, Protection Against Chemicals, Measurement of Cumulative Permeability of Chemicals with Low Vapor Pressure from Materials

EUROLAB, with its state-of-the-art accredited laboratories and expert team, provides precise and fast testing services within the scope of ISO 19918 testing. ISO 19918 describes laboratory test methods for determining the resistance of materials, closures and seams used in personal protective equipment (PPE) to the penetration of solid or liquid chemicals with low vapor pressure (less than 25 Pa at 133.322°C) or insolubility.

These chemicals, which are often part of pesticide formulations and other mixtures, cannot be measured using other standards to measure permeability.

This test method is suitable for field strength and concentrated pesticide formulations as well as other mixtures where the active ingredient is a chemical with low vapor pressure or low solubility in commonly used liquid and gaseous collection media.

This test method is not designed to replace standards such as ISO 6529, EN 16523-1 and ASTM F739 that measure the permeability of volatile or soluble chemicals in water or other liquids. tested. ISO 19918 is not suitable for the measurement of volatile chemicals that may evaporate before the chemical analysis is complete.

The degree of contamination depends on many factors, such as type of exposure, application technique and chemical formulation. As the exposure level can vary significantly, this method is designed to evaluate the relative performance of PPE materials for different durations.

This method is designed to measure cumulative permeability. Breakthrough time cannot be measured by this method. This test method does not measure resistance to penetration or degradation.

The test method standard can be used to evaluate PPE materials that are new or require the product standard to be treated such as washing or simulated abrasion.
