The Piercing-sucking type [insect]. Specialized mouth parts characterized by a tubular, usually jointed beak, enclosing several needle-like stylets.

The mandibles and maxillae, sometimes supplemented by or replaced by the labrum-epipharynx and hypopharynx, are greatly elongated and slender structures, which serve for piercing the skin of an animal or the epidermis of a plant, and also as the food channel, i. e., an inner tube up which the liquid blood or sap in drawn.

Record 2 1990-10-04

English

Subject field(s)
  • Clothing (General)
DEF

This two-layer liner can be worn under liquid-impermeable protective clothing to prevent the accumulation of perspiration on or near the skin. It lets perspiration vapour out and keeps it out when it changes into liquid. The inner layer of material is vapour-permeable but liquid-impermeable. This layer is laminated to an outer layer that easily absorbs vapour and liquid. Its major application is in clothing intended to be worn in military and industrial environments contaminated by chemical, biological or nuclear hazards.

Domaine(s)
  • Vêtements (Généralités)
DEF

Cette doublure à deux épaisseurs peut être portée sous les vêtements imperméables afin d'éviter que la transpiration ne se condense à la surface de la peau. Elle laisse la transpiration se vaporiser et la maintient à l'extérieur sous forme de gouttelettes. Cette doublure est constituée d'une couche interne, perméable à la vapeur mais imperméable au liquide, contrecollée à une couche externe très absorbante. Elle trouve sa principale application dans la fabrication des vêtements militaires et des vêtements requis dans les milieux contaminés par des substances chimiques, biologiques ou radioactives.
