Protective combat clothing (PCC) may include a shirt and trousers, wherein the shirt and the trousers are at least partially made of woven fabric made of a composition of the materials comprising flame-resistant fiber, flame-resistant meta-aramid fiber, heat-resistant fiber, polyamide and anti-static fiber.

According to this procedure, these steps are made: a) immersing a shaped mold (4) in a dipping process in a liquid synthetic polyisoprene (IR) (synthetic latex), wherein the shaped mold (4) has previously been treated with coagulation agent (coagulants) or thermally treated, b) after the immersion, the synthetic polyisoprene layer is left on the shaped mold (4) and is freed from all salts with water, c) thereafter, the synthetic polyisoprene layer together with the shaped mold (4) is vulcanized in an oven, d) the synthetic polyisoprene layer is removed from the mold (4), e) the salts precipitated by the vulcanization on the synthetic polyisoprene molded body (11) are washed off with water and a chlorine-containing solution, f) the synthetic polyisoprene molded body (11) is halogenated to neutralize its pH and to increase its suppleness in contact with body skin with a halogenating solution, g) the synthetic polyisoprene molded body (11) is dried. The electro-protective gloves thus produced are much more comfortable to wear, provide better insulation, even with thinner wall thickness, and they are more durable.

The invention provides a temperature-regulation apparatus with a segmented metal-containing layer. The metal-containing layer has an electrically insulating coating and a plurality of mutually electrically insulated planar metal segments to increase insulation by reducing thermal emissivity whilst minimizing the hazards of an electrically conductive layer. The temperature-regulation apparatus may comprise a blanket which may be used to actively supply temperature regulated air for regulating the temperature of a subject, in which case it includes at least one port, or it may be used to passively maintain the temperature of a subject, or it may comprise a temperature-regulation garment.

Various aspects of the present disclosure are directed to a system for increasing the protection against electric shocks of a person working in proximity to an electrical system. In one example embodiment, the system includes a plurality of first radio terminals, via each of which a radio link for receiving an emergency signal can be established. The system further including a protective device to be worn by the person and for detecting an electrical body current. The protective device including a second radio terminal that, in the event that an unacceptable body current is detected, outputs and transmits an emergency signal via a radio link established between one of the first plurality of radio terminals and the second radio terminal.

The invention addresses the problem of providing a cloth that is excellent not only in flame retardancy and antistatic properties but also in appearance quality and preferably also has protection performance against electric arcs, a method for producing the same, and a textile product. A means for resolution is a cloth including a meta-type wholly aromatic polyamide fiber and an electrically conductive fiber, wherein both the meta-type wholly aromatic polyamide fiber and the electrically conductive fiber are colored.
