6.2.2 Degradation resistance
6.2.2.1 Introduction
For footwear highly resistant to degradation by chemicals, at least three chemicals chosen in Table 4 shall be
tested. Other chemicals may be used according to the intended use.
6.2.2.2 General
A footwear item protecting against chemicals shall be tested according to EN 13832-1:2006, 4.2. The sole and
upper shall both be tested with the same chemicals.
After the tests, the tests pieces shall be inspected. If they are very affected (see EN 13832-1:2006, 4.2.4.3), it
is considered that they fail the test.

6.2.2.3 Tests to be performed after the degradation test
6.2.2.3.1 Test method for uppers
a) basic physical measurement;
NOTE The mass serves only as information
b) tear resistance and elongation at break.
6.2.2.3.2 Test method for soles
a) basic physical measurement: hardness;
b) tear resistance.
