What DuPont Tychem 2000 is
DuPont Tychem 2000 is The garment shall be constructed of DuPont™ Tychem® 2000 -- a DuPont™ Tyvek® protective fabric coated with 1.25 mils of polyethylene.; Tychem® 2000 is yellow for high visibility. The manufacturer names these applications: Used extensively in the petroleum; pulp and paper; food and chemical processing; and pharmaceutical industries. Seams: Seam types on the SafeSPEC pages for this family: Bound, Serged, Taped; Serged or sewn*: A seam produced when three threads are interlocked around the raw edges of two pieces of material for a strong, stress-resistant seam. For potential misting exposure of non-hazardous liquids or particle penetrat. Shelf life per the manufacturer: What is the shelf life of Tychem® 2000 garments? Tychem® garments may be used for 5 years from the date of manufacture as long as all of the following conditions are met: The garment has been stored p.
In the manufacturer's words: "A lightweight, and durable fabric, Tychem® 2000 fabric provides at least 30 minutes of protection against >40 chemical challenges. Tychem® 2000 is used for light splash protection in a variety of industrial environments, including petroleum refining, pulp and paper manufacturing, food processing, chemical processing, and pharmaceutical manufacturing."

Index of codes: > = greater than, imm. = immediate (<10 minutes), nt = not tested, L = liquid, G = gas. Normalized Breakthrough Time (NBT) shown in minutes. *Serged and/or bound seams are degraded by some hazardous liquid chemicals, such as strong acids, and should not be worn when these chemicals are present. Permeation testing on chemicals is in accordance with ASTM F739, Standard Test Method for Resistance of Protective Clothing Materials to Permeation by Liquids or Gases Under Conditions of Continuous Contact. All tests are conducted at room temperature unless otherwise noted. Reported results are Normalized Breakthrough Times defined by ASTM F739 as the time (in minutes) when the permeation rate reaches 0.1 µg/cm2/min. Note: Numbers reported are averages of samples tested. Sample results vary. All DuPont permeation testing is performed by a third party.

Manufacturer limitations and warnings
- Warning: Most Tychem® garments should not be used around heat, flames, sparks or in potentially flammable or explosive environments.
- These Tychem® 2000 garments have attached socks made of the garment material. These attached socks must be worn inside protective outer footwear and are not suitable as outer footwear. These attached socks do not have adequate durability or slip resistance to be worn as the outer foot covering.
- Please note that Tychem® fabrics have different permeation performance. Please check DuPont™ SafeSPEC™ for permeation data that meets your specific needs.
- Storm flaps: All standard bound and taped seam coveralls have a single storm flap with a pressure-sensitive tape closure. Serged seam coveralls do not have a storm flap. (catalog p.20)
- *Serged and bound seams are degraded by some hazardous liquid chemicals, such as strong acids, and should not be worn when these chemicals are present.

It is the user's responsibility to determine the level of toxicity and the proper personal protective equipment needed. The information set forth herein reflects laboratory performance of fabrics, not complete garments, under controlled conditions. It is intended for informational use by persons having technical skill for evaluation under their specific end-use conditions, at their own discretion and risk. Anyone intending to use this information should first verify that the garment selected is suitable for the intended use. In many cases, seams and closures have shorter breakthrough times and higher permeation rates than the fabric. Please contact DuPont for specific data. If fabric becomes torn, abraded or punctured, or if seams or closures fail, or if attached gloves, visors, etc. are damaged, end user should discontinue use of garment to avoid potential exposure to chemical.

- 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.
- Please read, understand and follow the Tychem® User Manual.
- Wear other appropriate PPE such as, but not limited to, respiratory, eye, head, hand, and foot protection based on the hazard assessment.
