Normal clothing

Effective temperature (ET ) is a single number representing those combinations of temperature and humidity which are equivalent in terms of comfort. It is defined as the dry-bulb temperature of the environment at 50% relative humidity. Standard effective temperature loci for normally clothed, sedentary persons are plotted on Eigure 3. The sensation of comfort depends in part upon the wetness of one s skin. Thus, as a person becomes more active the effective temperature lines become more hori2ontal and the influence of relative humidity is more pronounced. 

Nominal filter area approximately equal to ac tual area A representative sample Suitable choice of filter medium Operating conditions equal to those used in testing Normal cloth conditioning during testing and operation The scale-up factor on rate specifically does not allow for ... 

The work to be reported on here involves an approach of treating normal clothing in order to achieve a level of protection through repellency. It was reasoned that resin treated textile might be repellent to sprays, hence reducing dermal exposure. At the same time, it was hope that the woven textile might retain... 

An individual s absorbed dose is assumed to be proportional to the amount of a.i. applied. In this paper that proportion (mg a.i. absorbed/lb a.i. applied) is derived from the exposure information in USEPA s Pesticide Handlers Database (PHED, 1992) and herbicide-specific absorption data. PHED provides exposure information on 12 parts of the body (as opposed to the body as a whole). For each body part, PHED provides data on the amount of active ingredient that comes into contact with that body part per pound of active ingredient applied (amount inhaled or amount of dermal contact per pound applied). The PHED data used here assume that the individual is wearing normal clothing and gloves but not additional protective devices such as aprons or respirators. Based on atrazine- and simazine-specific studies conducted by Syngenta, the fraction of atrazine and simazine absorbed as a result of dermal contact is 0.056 when the exposure is less than or equal to 8. ig/cm2, 0.012 for exposures greater than or equal to 80 i,g/cm2, and a linear interpolated value for intermediate exposures. The fraction of the inhaled atrazine or simazine that is assumed to be absorbed is 1.0. 

Keep these safe clothes separate from your normal clothes until your visit. Don t store them in new plastic, but if you d like to wrap them, use aluminum foil. Once you ve created a safe set of clothing, it s perhaps a good idea to always keep these separate, reserved for these visits. You could also store this set of clothes at my house. 

Dosimeters under normal clothing are placed in contact with skin (e.g. for forearms) or are outside of the undergarments but under normal clothing (e.g. for chest/back locations). 

Dosimeters under protective clothing represent those that are worn between normal clothing and protective clothing (e.g. protective coveralls) or under protective clothing but in contact with skin (as in the case of a forearm dosimeter for a worker wearing a short-sleeve shirt and protective coveralls). 

Dosimeters under normal and protective clothing represent dosimeters under both layers of clothing when protective clothing is worn over normal clothing. 

Elastomeric finishes are frequently used with swimwear, lingerie, foundation garments, athletic wear, hosiery and normal clothing. Some performance... 

As a very general rule, being within the range of a fireball from burning pyrotechnic compositions, in normal clothing, will be fetal in about half the cases. For 1 kg (2.2 lb) of composition, the expected fireball radii are as shown. 

Normal clothing afforded a high level of protection to the workers as determined by analyzing patches attached both outside and inside their normal clothing. However, since some compounds... 

Wearable technologies should be soft, flexible, and washable, to meet the expectations of normal clothing. Washing is an important factor in terms of product life cycle. The... 

The AFM nanorubbing can be easily overwritten by performing a subsequent scan in a different direction, as shown in Fig. 7.10. This behaviour is well known in normal cloth rubbing, where the entire surface is affected by the rubbing process. Surprisingly, such overwrite behaviour was also observed for AFM patterned ITO surfaces [34]. 

Wearing additional clothing also adds to energy expenditure. The hazards of heat stress may increase. It simply takes more energy to move the extra clothing compared to normal clothing assemblies. 

Other Protective Equipment You must wear protective (impervious) clothing and equipment provided by your employer at no cost to prevent repeated or prolonged contact with formaldehyde liquids. If you are required to change into whole-body chemical protective clothing, your employer must provide a change room for your privacy and for storage of your normal clothing. 

Planar thin-film technology is applied directly on the fabric to develop a FCB. It allows the implementation of a circuit board on a plain fabric patch for wearable electronic applications. It features a soft and flexible impression, just as normal clothes do.
