Protective gloves against dangerous chemicals and micro-organisms - Part 4: Determination of resistance to degradation by chemicals (ISO 374-4:2019)

This document specifies the test method for the determination of the resistance of protective glove materials to degradation by dangerous chemicals with continuous contact.
NOTE       Annex A gives information on interlaboratory test results on this method.
It is preferable that other tests used in addition to the evaluation of chemical resistance such as permeation resistance and penetration, as the chemical test do not provide sufficient information on the physical property changes affecting a glove during exposure to a chemical. It is necessary that the outside surface of the glove be exposed to the chemical.

Schutzhandschuhe gegen gefährliche Chemikalien und Mikroorganismen - Teil 4: Bestimmung des Widerstandes gegen Degradation durch Chemikalien (ISO 374 4:2019)

Dieses Dokument legt das Prüfverfahren für die Bestimmung des Widerstands von Werkstoffen für Schutzhandschuhe gegen Degradation durch gefährliche Chemikalien bei ständigem Kontakt fest.
ANMERKUNG   Anhang A enthält Informationen zu den Ergebnissen aus Labor Ringversuchen mit diesem Verfahren.
Es ist empfehlenswert, zusätzlich zur Beurteilung des chemischen Widerstands andere Prüfungen wie etwa Widerstand gegen Permeation und Widerstand gegen Penetration zu nutzen, weil die Chemikalienprüfung nicht ausreichend Informationen zu den Veränderungen der physikalischen Eigenschaften, die einen Handschuh während der Beanspruchung durch eine Chemikalie beeinflussen, bietet. Die Oberfläche der Außenseite des Handschuhs muss der Chemikalie ausgesetzt werden.

Gants de protection contre les produits chimiques dangereux et les micro-organismes - Partie 4: Détermination de la résistance à la dégradation par des produits chimiques (ISO 374-4:2019)

Le présent document spécifie la méthode d'essai pour la détermination de la résistance des matériaux des gants de protection à la dégradation par contact continu avec des produits chimiques dangereux.
NOTE       L'Annexe A donne des informations sur les résultats de l'essai interlaboratoires sur cette méthode.
Il est préférable que d'autres essais, tels que la résistance à la perméation et la résistance à la pénétration, soient utilisés en plus de l'évaluation de la résistance chimique car l'analyse chimique ne fournit pas suffisamment d'informations sur les changements de propriétés physiques affectant un gant lors d'une exposition à un produit chimique. Il est nécessaire que la surface extérieure du gant soit exposée au produit chimique.

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.

4 Test principles
The resistance of a protective glove material to degradation by a liquid chemical is determined by
measuring the change in puncture resistance of the glove material after continuous contact of the
external surface with the challenge test chemical. The test is applicable to gloves made of natural or
synthetic polymer. Lined gloves can produce unusable measurement results.
