Contains test data on 650 chemicals and mixtures with over 200 chemical protective clothing (CPC) models--gloves, suits, boots, visors, etc. Employs the American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM) numbering and naming system and presents the results of permeation tests, including breakthrough times. Also considers variations in CPC performance due to differences in materials, chemical additives and manufacturer.
The world’s most comprehensive source of performance data on chemical protective clothing The Performance Index provides industrial hygienists and workplace safety professionals with the most complete, up-to-date, reliable resource for making informed decisions on chemical protective clothing (CPC). Painstakingly compiled and evaluated by internationally recognized experts Krister Forsberg and Lawrence Keith, this new and expanded edition presents virtually all available data on the resistance of CPC to a wide variety of chemicals. Coverage spans test records from manufacturers worldwide, including CPC permeation and degradation data obtained with ASTM methods as well as other regulatory standards. Organized by chemical name and CAS Number, the new edition features: Over 10,500 chemical permeation tests—more than double the number of the 1989 edition An additional 3,000+ chemical degradation tests Coverage of 860 chemicals and mixtures—200 more than in the last edition Information on more than 350 different types and models of CPC, including gloves, hazmat suits, boots, visors, and more Roughly 50,000 data entries on such subjects as test material, thickness, permeation rates, breakthrough times, permeation index numbers, and references—twice as many as in the last edition Also available from Wiley … Quick Selection Guide to Chemical Protective Clothing Third Edition by Krister Forsberg and S. Z.

The color-coded recommendations against the broader list of materials now contain 27 representative barrier materials. This best selling pocket guide is the an essential field source for HazMat teams, spill responder, safety professionals, chemists and chemical engineers, industrial hygienists, supervisors, purchase agents, salespeople and other users of chemical protective clothing.
This updated Third Edition of the best-selling pocket guide has been expanded to include some significant new information when compared to previous editions. The color-codes tables of recommendations now contain a listing of 16 representative protective barriers including trade names materials against approximately 600 chemicals of interest. These barrier listings now include glove, boot, and suit material of construction. The recommendations presented in the guide are based on near 11,000 permeation and over 3,000 degradation test data compiled and evaluated by Krister Forsberg. All these data are published the 2nd edition of Wiley's Chemical Protective Clothing Performance Book. This guide is divided into seven major sections. The section of color coded recommendations is organized numerically by chemical class under the ASTM F-1186, Guide for Classification of Chemicals According to Functional Groups. The Chemical Index section, contains the Chemical Class Numbers, Chemical Names and Synonyms, chemical abstract service (CAS) numbers, Risk Codes, and special "skin" and "caution" notations. The Pocket Guide is an essential field guide for spill responders, safety engineers, industrial hygienist, chemists and chemical engineers, purchasing agents, salespeople, and workers of all industries. The Third Edition of Quick Selection Guide to Chemical Protective Clothing is a pocket guide to the selection of protective clothing.
