Historical Standard: ASTM F1001-99a Standard Guide for Selection of Chemicals to Evaluate Protective Clothing Materials
SUPERSEDED (see Active link, below)
ASTM F1001
1. Scope
1.1 The purpose of this guide is to provide a recommended list of both liquid and gaseous chemicals for evaluating protective clothing materials in testing programs.
1.2 Results derived from testing programs using these lists of challenge chemicals are not intended for the definitive characterization of protective clothing materials.
1.3 This list of challenge chemicals is not inclusive of all chemical challenges; the chemicals were chosen to represent broad ranges of liquid and gaseous chemical classes and properties. Not all chemical classes are represented. Other chemicals, especially those of interest to the manufacturer or user, should be tested in addition to those recommended in this guide.
1.4 This standard may involve hazardous materials, operations, and equipment. This standard does not purport to address all of the safety problems associated with its use. It is the responsibility of the user of this standard to establish appropriate safety and health practices and determine the applicability of regulatory limitations prior to use. A specific hazards statement is given in Section 7.
2. Referenced Documents (purchase separately) The documents listed below are referenced within the subject standard but are not provided as part of the standard.
