What does “Breakthrough” Mean?
Most Users Believe… “Breakthrough” is when the chemical first breaks
through the fabric… so it means the user is safe for
at least 480 minutes
Correct definition… The time until the RATE OF PERMEATION
(i.e. the SPEED at which permeation is happening)
reaches 1.0µg / minute / cm 2
