1 Scope
This European Standard specifies the test method for the determination of the resistance
of protective glove materials to degradation by dangerous chemicals with continuous
contact.
NOTE Annex A gives information on interlaboratory test results on this method.
Other tests used to evaluate chemical resistance such as permeation resistance and
penetration resistance may not provide sufficient information on the physical property
changes affecting a glove during exposure to a chemical. It is necessary that the
outside surface of the glove be exposed to the chemical.
