Typical applications where agriculture workers are exposed to chemicals • Mixing and loading the undiluted concentrate • Spraying the highly diluted mixture • Exposure at work place to a fine aerosol caused by drift • Exposure by intensive contact with treated foliage Test Result (% Penetration) None Detected None Detected None Detected None Detected None Detected m0 EN14786 specifies a test method to determine the resistance of textile materials against penetration by atomized liquid chemicals, emulsions and dispersions. These materials are intended to be used in both limited-use and reusable protective clothing. The penetration is expressed in percent, as ratio of the amounts of chemical applied and retained by the textile. 29 www.microgard.com Copyright ©MICROGARD Ltd 2008. All rights reserved.
