Nomex Omega fibre reacts to high levels of radiant heat or to the contact with a flame ... In the case of multi-layer protective clothing (an external layer as screen, a breathable waterproof barrier and an insulating layer inside), the extension of the Nomex Omega screen layer due to the heat forms a balloon which imprisons an air layer in-between the screen layer and the breathable membrane. This additional air layer increases appreciably the thermal protection of the garment. 1, record 1, English, - thermal%20protection%20of%20garment

La fibre Nomex Omega [...] réagit à la présence de hauts niveaux de chaleur radiante ou au contact d'une flamme vive [...] Dans le cas de vêtements de protection multicouches (une couche extérieure écran, une barrière imper-respirante et une couche isolante à l'intérieur), l'allongement du tissu écran en Nomex Omega provoqué par la chaleur forme un ballon qui emprisonne une couche d'air entre la couche écran et la membrane imper-respirante. Cette couche d'air supplémentaire augmente la protection thermique du vêtement de façon très sensible. 2, record 1, French, - protection%20thermique%20de%20v%C3%AAtement
