BEHAVIOR OF LIQUIDS ON VARIOUS CORDS FOR SEAMS OF CHEMICAL AND BIOLOGICAL PROTECTIVE OVERGARMENTS

Abstract

Previous researchers have reported the behavior of liquid migration on and through textile assemblies. This study is the first known attempt to test seams for liquid penetration by various chemicals (important for developing chemical and biological protective overgarments) and to develop an LSc type seam with a superimposed cord to help resist this penetration. The results show that liquid behavior on seams differs among chemicals as well as among cords. The optimum protection for a seam may vary from one chemical to another.
