Thermal Burden Optimization on CB Protective Suits Using New Materials and Innovative Design
Abstract
A new mission needs new or adapted equipment. Being necessary to operate more and more frequently in warm climates and considering the new requirements for chemical and biological (CB) protective suits, it was necessary to study new materials and concepts of operation for the existing CB air permeable suits. The paper presents the new requirements for reduced thermal burden protective suits, the tools for the evaluation of thermal burden and also some results of the conducted researches. The experimental results led us to a new concept in designing a suit for CB protection and also to produce a prototype batch.
