Research abstract
The development of a breathable, chemical resistant, elastomeric protective clothing material is critical to the wellfare of Military personnel in active duty. The objective our research is to develop and prototype a chemical defense garment which significantly improves upon the current chemical resistant clothing material technology through an innovative approach jointly developing a new polymer technology, along with fabric processing technology that will aid in optimizing the garment's effectiveness. As a consequence of this research, we will investigate fabrics, garment design, and processing technologies to improve the comfort levels of those wearing these products in a hostile environments.
