Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a protective garment system having two primary components. The first component, which serves as the outer layer of the garment, comprises a textile substrate that has been treated on one side with a hydrophobic composition and has been treated on the opposite side with an oleophobic composition. This combination is well-suited for protection against a variety of organic, oily type liquids (such as chemical warfare agents). The second component, which is a composite structure that serves as the inner layer of the garment, contains a core of activated carbon positioned between layers of adhesive and textile substrate.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a textile treatment and the treated textile, wherein one side of the textile is treated to have hydrophobic characteristics and the other side is treated to have both hydrophobic and oleophobic characteristics. The present treatment is wash-durable and breathable. The textile treatment is effective at repelling aqueous liquids (such as rain) and at preventing the penetration of oily liquids (such as chemical warfare agents) through the textile.
