REMARKS:
SUPPLEMENTARY NOTE:
THE SPECIFICATIONS ARE BASED ON INFORMATION AND TESTS FROM SIMILAR
SUBSTANCES BY ANALOGY.
DUE TO VARYING CONDITIONS (E.G. TEMPERATURE OR OTHER STRAINS) IT MUST BE
CONSIDERED THAT THE USAGE OF A CHEMICAL PROTECTIVE GLOVE IN PRACTICE MAY BE
MUCH SHORTER THAN THE PERMEATION TIME DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH EN 374.
SINCE ACTUAL CONDITIONS OF PRACTICAL USE OFTEN DEVIATE FROM STANDARDIZED
CONDITIONS ACCORDING EN 374 THE GLOVE MANUFACTURER RECOMMENDS TO USE THE
CHEMICAL PROTECTIVE GLOVE IN PRACTICE NOT LONGER THAN 50% OF THE
RECOMMENDED PERMEATION TIME.
MANUFACTURER'S DIRECTIONS FOR USE SHOULD BE OBSERVED BECAUSE OF GREAT
DIVERSITY OF TYPES.
