Chemical Warfare Agents (CWAs)
Permeation tests with chemical warfare agents on protective clothing and materials.
Protection when it’s most important
Military personnel and first responders in the civil sector have to deal with life-threatening dangers, which are both visible and invisible. In those conditions they must be able to fully rely on the protection provided by their clothing. ProQares determines the quality of protective clothing and materials with high-quality permeation tests using chemical warfare agents.
Realistic testing with CWAs
ProQares has a wide variety of test chemicals available, including chemical warfare agents. During permeation tests, we measure whether and in what concentration a chemical warfare agent permeates a material. When using CWAs we generally work with a realistic set-up based on the actual exposure that military users may have to deal with. This results in highly accurate test results that contribute to the safety of military personnel and first responders.
Tests are performed based on international standards (NATO, BS, ISO, FINABEL) or under conditions specified by you.
