Optical Properties and Visual Effects of Face Masks.

Abstract

Working Group 48 was specifically asked to suggest procedures for studying the optical properties and visual effects of the XM-29 mask, and this report is based on material presented and discussed at Ft. Rucker on July 14-15, 1976. However, the techniques of field and laboratory testing described in the report may be generally used to study a variety of face masks. The XM-29 field protective mask is designed for military use to provide respiratory protection against field concentrations of all chemical and biological agents in vapor or aerosol form.
