Aprons-- Rubber or Plastic?

 

Some operations in the laboratory, like washing glassware, require the handling of relatively large quantities of corrosive liquids in open containers. To protect clothing in such operations, plastic or rubber aprons may be supplied.

A high-necked, calf- or ankle-length, rubberized laboratory apron or a long-sleeved, calf- or ankle-length, chemical- and fire-resistant laboratory coat should be worn anytime laboratory manipulation or experimentation is being conducted.

Always wear long-sleeved and long-legged clothing; do not wear short-sleeved shirts, short trousers, or short skirts.
