杜邦最近宣布了7月16日的网络研讨会，帮助教育消防员和紧急响应者如何最佳地应对Covid-19和阻燃（FR）个人防护设备（PPE）危险要求的保护需求。消防员和紧急响应者需要与FR衣服合适的面部覆盖物。当用作面部，鼻子和嘴唇覆盖物时，设计的面具，桥梁和罩用Nomex制造®可以帮助应急响应者与美国疾病控制和预防中心（CDC）社会休闲指导符合佩戴面具，并满足国家消防协会（NFPA）1500的FR合规要求。
免费网络研讨会，“FR Face Masks & COVID-19: What Firefighters and Emergency Responders Need to Know,”will be held on July 16 from 2:00 – 3:00 PM EDT. The webinar will help firefighters and other emergency responders understand the three vital considerations in FR face mask selection based on the specific hazards they face on the job: fire resistance, particulate blocking and viral protection. The important issue of cleaning and decontaminating FR face masks will also be discussed. For more information and to register, visitFR Face Masks & COVID-19.
“Emergency responders are vital to our communities at all times, but especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. We’re dedicated to providing flame-resistant PPE solutions like Nomex® to help keep emergency responders safe,” said David Domnisch, global business director, DuPont Personal Protection. “We recommend a total FR solution that includes both turnout gear or garment made of Nomex® and a FR mask or hood made of Nomex® for enhanced FR protection. Nomex® provides the protection required to help firefighters, EMTs, industrial workers and many others who face FR hazards to do their jobs safely and effectively.”
该网络研讨会将突出最近的杜邦测试，表明使用Nomex®NanoFlex制造的引擎盖和面罩具有优异的病毒和细菌过滤效率，根据ASTM F2101用于医用面具。
Nomex® won’t melt, drip or burn and is known for its inherent flame-resistant performance and optimal balance of comfort and protection. Specifically,Nomex® Nano Flexis a highly breathable, next-generation FR solution used in hoods and provides superior particle barrier protection while also being lighter weight than other FR materials. Nomex® Nano Flex helps provide hoods with a 4X increase in particle barrier protection – especially in the neckline and upper jaw area historically known to be the most vulnerable and least protected – and also does not impact situational awareness which is important in the extreme conditions that firefighters face.
杜邦仍然致力于帮助保护那些保护他人的人，特别是我们努力向前线与Covid-19的前线提供适当的PPE解决方案。有关Nomex®和Kevlar®PPE解决方案的更多信息，请访问DuPont firefighter and emergency response protection.
