Part 2 in GB8965.2 revised in 2007 about flame retardant protective clothing: welding clothing
GB8965.1-2009 welding protective clothing, it uses the TPP test for thermal protection performance in the standard. Class A directly touch the skin requirements of the fabric TPP ≥ 126KW • S / ㎡, the fabrics gap between the skin and clothing TPP ≥ 250KW • S / ㎡. The protection of molten metal test requirements of the standard fabric temperature is 40 ℃ on the back of the sensor, the droplet number to be greater than 15 drops.
