Frequently Asked Questions
TJ198T WH
DuPont™ Tyvek® 800
Are Tyvek® garments low linting? Tyvek® fabric is low-linting by nature of its continuously strong, high-density polyethylene fibers. DuPont cannot guarantee the absence of particles on these garments as threads and zippers can be the most significant source of contamination. For end users with concerns about contamination or any other contaminants, the best practice is to audit in-bound materials, including garments, for those contaminants. End users with highly specialized requirements may consider Tyvek® IsoClean® garments for controlled environments designated as Clean-Processed (0C option): These garments are specially processed to minimize particle shedding and individually packaged in an ISO Class 4 cleanroom. Is it possible to wash and re-use TYVEK® garments? DuPont does not recommend washing TYVEK® garments for re-use. These garments are designed for limited-use. They can be worn until damaged, altered or contaminated. What determines if the garment is contaminated ? The decision on whether or not a garment has been contaminated is made by local managers responsible for PPE based on an analysis of the incident in which the garment was used. This analysis may include exposure time, chemicals involved, level of exposure, proximity to the actual release, tasks performed and environmental monitoring in the area in which the garment was worn. Garments that are damaged, altered or show signs of contamination, such as discoloration, odor, stiffening or cracks, should not be used. Are TYVEK® garments flame resistant or flame retardant (FR) ? No, TYVEK® garments are not flame resistant or flame retardant and should not be used around heat, flame, sparks or potentially flammable or explosive environments. TYVEK® garments will ignite and continue to burn and melt.
In addition, TYVEK® garments should not be worn under or over a garment made of Nomex® or any other flame resistant fabric, if the potential for fire or electric arc exists. In what ways can I manage or prevent heat stress? Chemical protective clothing can interfere with the natural regulation of body temperature. This can lead to a rise in core body temperature and heat stress. Implementing a conservative work/rest schedule or using a cooling system may be effective in reducing heat stress. (Note: Do not wear cooling vests in potentially flammable or explosive environments.) .)
Be aware of the symptoms and treatment of heat stress. If you or your co-workers have symptoms of heat stress such as nausea, dizziness, high heart rates, or excessive heat build-up, leave the work area immediately and remove the ensemble as quickly as possible after decontamination and seek professional care.
The maximum length of time the chemical protective clothing can be worn depends on variables such as the air supply, ambient conditions, climate inside the ensemble, physical and psychological conditions of the wearer, work rate and work load. The TLV® pocket guide from the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH, Cincinnati) provides corrected heat stress limits for some garments. Similar information is available on the federal OSHA web site (www.OSHA.gov). The WBGT correction factor for chemical protective garments is at least 10°C or higher for chemical garments made of impervious films (such as Tychem® garments) and covering the entire body (hooded coverall or encapsulating designs). For Tyvek® coveralls, the WBGT correction factor is 2°C with a hood and 1°C without a hood. Permeation The concentration of my hazard is LOWER than what is listed in the "Search Hazards" box. What should I do? If the temperature of your hazard is LOWER than the hazard listed in the hazard search box, go ahead and select the higher temperature hazard as long as the physical phase (solid, liquid or gas/vapor) is the same. Because chemical hazards become more aggressive with increasing temperatures, selecting a higher temperature chemical hazard will lead to a more conservative result.
Can TYVEK® garments be worn in cleanroom applications? TYVEK® garments have not been designed for controlled environment applications. DuPont offers a full line of garments that have been specially manufactured, processed and packaged for use in controlled environment applications. Please see our complete line of controlled environment products at www.safespeccleanroom.dupont.com. What are Type 3/4/5/6 garment standards? Chemical protective clothing certified to a specific Type can have very different performance properties in terms of protection, durability and comfort. The indicated Type simply means that the suit has passed one or more of the whole suit liquid tests and meets the minimum performance requirements for the constituent mechanical and barrier tests. Click to View - Understanding CE Marking." Do TYVEK® products contain latex? As of January 2023, all DuPont Personal Protection products are manufactured under specifications that exclude components containing natural rubber latex. Tyvek® 500, Tyvek® 600 and Tyvek® 800 styles made before January 2023 contain natural rubber latex, which may cause allergic reactions in some sensitized individuals. Anyone who begins to exhibit an allergic response during the use of DuPont products should immediately cease using these products and should report it to DuPont at +1 (888) 439-2988 so that an investigation can be initiated. How are Tyvek® garments different from other limited-use garments on the market? Tyvek® garments are unique in several ways. First is the proprietary flash spun Tyvek® fabric which offers inherent breathable barrier that cannot easily be worn or abraded away. This inherent barrier of Tyvek® is not dependent on a thin film or a thin layer of small fibers -- with Tyvek®, every part of the fabric provides barrier. This delivers an effective breathable barrier to particles due to the torturous path created by this unique fabric structure. Unlike microporous film garments, the breathability of Tyvek® garments can be easily demonstrated. Watch this video to see for yourself. In what ways can I dispose of TYVEK® garments? In the United States, if not contaminated with chemical or biological hazards, Tyvek® 400 SFR garments can be recycled for non-hazardous applications through the Tyvek® Protective Apparel Recycling Program.Contact DuPont Personal Protection Customer Service at 1-800-931-3456 for information.
Tyvek® 400 SFR garments may be landfilled or incinerated in accordance with local regulations. Uncontaminated chemical protective garments may be incinerated in a facility that is capable of handling mixtures containing plastics. Likewise, an uncontaminated chemical protective garment may be buried in a facility that accepts plastic materials.
Contaminated garments that cannot be handled safely without protective equipment must be disposed of with other hazardous wastes, either through incineration or landfill per local regulations. Before discarding, cut off a sleeve or a leg so the garments cannot be worn again as protective clothing. How should TYVEK® garments be stored? Store TYVEK® garments in a cool, dark, dry location free of dirt and insects. Sunlight, ozone, high temperatures (>120° F ; 49° C), vehicle exhaust fumes, compression under heavy weights and sharp edges or projections are some conditions known to degrade the materials in these garments.
Store TYVEK® garments in boxes, in bags or on hangers. Never step on protective garments. Never place or store heavy objects on top of protective garments. What is the shelf life of Tyvek® 800 garments? DuPont suggests that Tyvek® garments be used within 5 years of receipt, provided they are properly stored and pass a full visual inspection. High temperature, oxidizing gases, wet, cold, ultraviolet and ionizing radiation can significantly impact the long-term life of garments made of Tyvek®.The antistatic properties may reduce over time. The user must ensure the dissipative performance is sufficient for the application. Where can I find a SDS (Safety Data Sheet) for Tyvek® 800 garments? Safety Data Sheets (SDS) are written in accordance with applicable federal regulations, 29 CFR 1910.1200, to communicate health and safety data on usage and handling of hazardous chemicals. Under this regulation, DuPont™ Tyvek® 400, Tyvek® 400 D, Tyvek® 500,Tyvek® 800, Tyvek® 600, Tyvek® 400 FC, ProShield®, ProShield® 70 , ProShield® 50 , ProShield® 10, ProShield® 60, ProShield® 6 SFR and Tychem® materials and garments are defined as articles, not chemicals, and the SDS and labeling requirements in that standard do not apply. How are Tyvek® 800 garments different from Tyvek® 600, Tyvek® 500 and standard Tyvek® 400 garments? Tyvek® 800 garments use an innovative fabric technology based on Tyvek® and an enhanced garment design, combining the ability to provide resistance to low-concentration, water-based, inorganic chemicals (even under pressure) with the strength and durability of Tyvek®. Tyvek® 800 garments offer seams that are sewn and then taped, which, when coupled with the innovative fabric; offer improved overall garment system protection levels. These fabric and seam differences along with other enhanced garment design elements represent the key differences between Tyvek® 800 and Tyvek® 600, Tyvek® 500 and standard Tyvek® 400 garments. Because of these enhancements, Tyvek® 800 garments are CE certified to Types 3, 4, 5 & 6. Click to View - Understanding CE Marking. Permeation The concentration of my hazard is HIGHER than what is listed in the "Search Hazards" box. What should I do? If the concentration of your hazard is HIGHER than the hazard concentration listed in the hazard search box, you can NOT use the data for the lower concentration hazard. This data will not give you an accurate assessment of suitable garments. Please Contact Us for assistance. Do TYVEK® products contain silicone? All DuPont Personal Protection products are manufactured under specifications that do not contain silicone, with some exceptions. Tyvek® friction-coated shoe covers or Tyvek® garments with friction-coated shoe covers might contain silicone. This includes Tyvek® styles TY122, TY121, FC450 and FC454. Additionally, Tychem® 6000 AL styles TF630 and TF640T contain a silicone valve diaphragm. End users who are consuming these styles and who have concerns about silicone contamination should conduct their own testing to ensure they are suitable for their application(s). Do Tyvek® 800 garments meet ANSI/ISEA 101 sizing standards? No. DuPont Tyvek® 800 coveralls do not meet ASNI/ISEA 101 sizing standards. For specific sizing dimensions on a particular DuPont garment, please view the Product Details tab for that garment.

Your hazard scenario did not produce any results. May we suggest:
- If you are searching multiple hazards at one time, try breaking your search into separate hazards by either creating a new scenario or unchecking Hazards in the pane to the left. SafeSPEC™ is trying to find one garment that can be used for all of your hazards. You may need to consider more than one garment.
- If you have a liquid or vapor chemical hazard, try searching the Chemical Resistance Database. This database will show you permeation data for all of the fabrics tested against a given hazard. Once you are able to determine a suitable fabric, you will have the flexibility of selecting a suitable garment design and seam construction yourself.
- If you answered "yes" to the question that you are working in an environment that requires flame resistant clothing, please note that although DuPont has several garment options for scenarios involving possible industrial fire or electric arc exposures as well as chemical exposure hazards, these garments may not have been tested against the specific chemical hazard(s) that you have selected or may have breakthrough times lower than your intended work duration. If possible, try to mitigate the need for flame resistant clothing by implementing engineering controls, work practices and administrative controls before resorting to protective clothing. Additionally, try breaking your search into separate hazards as suggested above in order to find garment options to meet your needs.
- If you selected "localized to the feet" for the direction of exposure question, you may want to consider chemical resistant boots instead of purchasing a full garment. DuPont does not manufacture or sell chemical resistant boots. However, we do offer some coveralls and encapsulated suits with attached socks. These socks can be worn as an extra layer of protection inside of chemical resistant boots.
