  • Title: Ammonia and ethylene oxide permeation through selected protective clothing.
    Author: Berardinelli SP, Moyer ES, Hall RC.
    Journal: Am Ind Hyg Assoc J; 1990 Nov; 51(11):595-600. PubMed ID: 2085165.
    Abstract:
    An automated permeation test system was developed to collect permeation data. Three test specimens were evaluated simultaneously versus a challenge gas. The study evaluated chemical protective clothing garment materials for use by emergency response personnel confronted by ammonia or ethylene oxide in the gas phase. A total of 13 encapsulating suit materials and 2 glove materials were tested. Surgical latex material is not recommended for use in handling ammonia or ethylene oxide; other materials offer much greater protection.
