摘要 A protective garment, including a double protective garment, for working in radioactive, nuclear, and/or toxic environments, wherein the main body has a rear surface and the rear surface comprises a reversible opening which is adapted to allow a SCBA (self-contained breathing apparatus) tank to be removed and replaced while the user continues to wear the protective garment. The reversible opening can be a zipper, including a double zipper. The protective garment is formed of a tri-laminate 30/30/30 water resistant barrier fabric. The garment can be incinerated so as to provide a disposable, one time use coverall particularly adapted for use in nuclear/radioactive environments. The coverall provides integrated elements for water resistance (i.e., splash resistant), breathable, comfortable contamination protection with a high volume of water vapor transfer which can mitigate worker heat stress. It is adapted for use with various types of breathing apparatuses, included external air lines, back-mounted SCBAs, and emergency breathing bottles or apparatuses. Air tanks and bottles are covered by the garment and thus do not need to be decontaminated. The garment also can include elements for use with air sampling devices and/or dosimetry equipment that are often worn by such workers.
