On an MSDS [Material Safety Data Sheet], impervious is a term used to describe protective gloves and other protective clothing. If a material is impervious to a chemical, then that chemical cannot readily penetrate through the material or damage the material. Different materials are impervious (resistant) to different chemicals. No single material is impervious to all chemicals. If an MSDS recommends wearing impervious gloves, you need to know the type of material from which the gloves should be made. For example, neoprene gloves are impervious to butyl alcohol but not to ethyl alcohol. 3, record 4, English, - impervious

Le mot imperméable sert ordinairement à décrire des gants et autres vêtements de protection. Lorsqu'on dit qu'une matière est imperméable à une certaine substance, cela veut dire qu'elle empêche la substance en question de pénétrer ou d'endommager la matière. Différents matières sont imperméables à différentes substances. Il n'existe pas de matière qui soit imperméable à toutes les substances. Si une FTSS recommande de porter des gants imperméables (étanches), vous devez chercher à savoir en quelle matière ces gants devraient être fabriqués. Par exemple, les gants de néoprène sont imperméables à l'alcool butylique mais pas à l'alcool éthylique. 3, record 4, French, - imperm%C3%A9able

Selon nous, dans le contexte des vêtements de protection, l'adjectif «imperméable» est préférable à «étanche». «Imperméable», comme l'illustre l'observation qui précède, désigne plus spécialement les tissus impénétrables, alors que «étanche» se rapporte plutôt à un contenant, un objet qui serait «bien fermé», en quelque sorte. 5, record 4, French, - imperm%C3%A9able
