Collective Protection (COLPRO) Novel Closures Testing

Abstract

This Test Operations Procedure (TOP) provides the standard for designing and conducting tests that evaluate a novel closure's ability to provide protection against vapor contaminants. This TOP presents standard test methods for vapor challenge testing of candidate novel closures, openings, and seams intended for use in collective protection (ColPro) shelters. Testing and/or characterization will be performed using simulant vapor to measure the protective capability of the candidate novel closure. The procedures in this TOP are designed to determine the amount of chemical analyte that permeates or penetrates the candidate seam and/or closure.
