EN 13832, Footwear protecting against chemicals, is published in three parts Part 1: Terminology and test methods Part 2: Requirements for footwear resistant to chemicals under laboratory conditions Part 3: Requirements for footwear highly resistant to chemicals under laboratory conditions It has been assumed in the drafting of this standard that the execution of its provisions is entrusted to appropriately qualified and experienced people for whose guidance it has been prepared and that appropriate precautions will be taken to avoid injury to health and contamination of the environment. According to the CEN/CENELEC Internal Regulations, the national standards organizations of the following countries are bound to implement this European Standard: Austria, Belgium, Cyprus, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Iceland, Ireland, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland and United Kingdom.

3.2 degradation deleterious change in one or more properties of a footwear material due to contact with a chemical
NOTE These changes may include, e.g. flaking, swelling, disintegration, embrittlement, discoloration, dimensions, appearance, hardening and softening. 3.3 penetration movement of a chemical through porous materials, seams, pinholes, or other imperfections in a footwear material at a non-molecular level 3.4 permeation process by which a chemical moves through a footwear material at a molecular level NOTE Permeation involves the following: • absorption of molecules of the chemical into the contacted (outside) surface of a material; • diffusion of the absorbed molecules into the material; • desorption of the molecules from the opposite (inside) surface of the material. 3.5 test chemical chemical or mixture of chemicals that is used to determine the breakthrough time under the laboratory test conditions. The chemical will be one that can cause adverse effects to the human body by contact with the skin.
any material or combination of materials used in footwear for the purpose of isolating the feet or feet and legs from direct contact with a chemical.
NOTE
This footwear (classification II, see Clause 4 of EN 13832-3: 2006)
• conforms to EN 13832-3 • has been tested with at least three chemicals under laboratory conditions 3.9 collecting medium medium in which the test chemical is freely soluble to saturation mass or volume fraction greater than 0,5 % 3.10 delay time time between actual arrival of the test chemical on the collecting side of the specimen and the analytical instrumentation registering a response to it 3.11 permeation rate mass of test chemical permeating the footwear per unit area per unit time (µg.cm-2.min-1) 3.12 closed loop breakthrough detection system in which the collecting medium is recirculated through the sampling compartment of the cell test NOTE Closed loop systems are not used with gaseous collecting media. 3.13 open loop breakthrough detection system in which the collecting medium passes through the sampling compartment of the cell test without recirculation NOTE Open loop systems may be used with either liquid or gaseous collecting media. 3.14 shrinkage reduction in one or more linear dimensions of a test piece of greater than 0,5 % as a result of degradation 3.15 growth increase in one or more linear dimensions of a test piece of greater than 12 % as a result of degradation

A suitable apparatus is illustrated in Figure 1 and comprises a base-plate (5) and an open-ended cylindrical chamber (4) that is held tightly against the test piece (6) by the wing nuts (1) mounted on the bolts (2).
NOTE A hole of diameter approximately 50 mm may be made in the base-plate for the examination of the surface not in contact with the liquid.
During the test, the opening in the top of the chamber shall be closed by a close-fitting plug (3). 4.2.2.2 Miscellaneous a) wash flask, for example a Becher glass b) absorbent paper or lint free textile fabric
