Respirators and PPE NOT Eligible

• Decontamination of PAPR hoods, face

shields or other types of PPE

• Respirators that contain cellulose-based

materials

• Check for Cellulose Acetate in undefined

masks by placing filter, shell, and coverweb (not straps or nose foam) in Butyric Acid

• Polypropylene and Polyester have

satisfactory chemical resistance to it, but Cellulose Acetate (CA) does not so degradation should be evident if the mask contains CA
