The 3M 4540 claims to offer protection against nuclear particles. Does this mean that it can be used in all nuclear–related applications?
No. The protection against particulate radioactive contamination symbol does not afford protection from radiation. During operations in white zones in nuclear facilities, the 3M 4540 can help prevent radioactive dusts and liquids from reaching the body. However, as some operations may involve highly toxic or corrosive chemicals, protective clothing offering higher barrier levels may be required (consult National Regulations).
