IV. Technical Q&A

​Q1: How does tropical climate affect protective gear?​
​A1:​​ Singapore’s 28°C average temperature and 84% humidity require:

· Hydrolysis stability >300 hours (85°C/95% RH)

· Breathability ≥ ASTM E96 Grade B

· Anti-mold certification (ISO 846)

​Q2: How to verify product protection levels?​
​Verification Protocol:​

1. Validate PSB certification codes

2. Request CNAS-accredited lab reports

3. Periodic third-party audits (e.g., TÜV SÜD Singapore)

​Q3: Testing standards for multi-layer composites?​
Follow EN14328:2017 requirements:

· Individual layer testing

· Composite structure validation

· Interlayer bond strength >15N/cm²
